The City of God Bible Art Mural Project brings together the Anglican Parish of Christ the King in the City of God in Rio de Janeiro, international mural artist Joel Bergner and local people. In 2010 and 2011 we produced murals of the Garden of Eden, the Last Supper and the New Jerusalem. In 2013 the project takes to the streets to produce two murals for Prophets' Square and Easter Square. Follow the adventure here over the coming days...

It's all Greek to me
Fr. Nicholas took the group on a tour of the Book of Revelation today, the last book of the Bible from which the text for the mural has been taken. The mural will feature some key phrases in the original Greek: 'Behold, I am making all things new'.
Joel then led a workshop on abstract art and how different colours could be used to express different emotions.
By the end of the day we had our very own open air museum of contemporary art!
