Although today’s cultural scene offers an enormous variety of options to choose from, people sometimes become discouraged that so much of today’s artistic output seems nihilistic and demeaning to the human person. It is encouraging to realize that there are groups of smart and articulate people working on this very situation. In New York City, the Catholic Artists Society was formed in response to Pope Benedict XVI’s 2009 Address to Artists. On that occasion, the Holy Father called for artists to be “custodians of Beauty” and “heralds and witnesses of Hope for Humanity.”
