- Abstract
- (en) This paper’s contention is that through the revaluation of a particular form of imagination, it is possible to find in modern and contemporary art a source and a refuge for spirituality. To do so, this paper studies the secularisation of art through the 20th century, a secularisation that appears to stand against religious art, but which, in this opposition, re-thinks and re-shapes its relationship to the religious and the spiritual, much more so than it erases it. The depth that the notion of imagination and imaginal creates is then presented, which allows the introduction of mundus imaginalis. Last of all, this paper compares abstract art and imaginal to show that the universe toward which these two forces draw our attention leads precisely to their common link: the imaginal world.
