Heaven on Earth

Bill Viola

„If heaven is… God’s space on earth… then you begin to invest more meaning in the here and now… as a way of infusing everything with potentially sacred meaning”

Jon Meacham

My Hero Anfione

Anfione, King of Thebe
Niobe
Royal Opera House London

Anfione doesn't want power any more. The vision of heaven threatens him, frightens him. He is praying to the spheres to help him to put in motion what stays and give it a harmony.

Book Love

Abelardo Morell 
Book Damaged by Water
2001

There are people, who imagine a heaven that is a mad big library. I am one of them. When I see this photo of a long suffering wet book, I feel like crying, I feel love.

Heaven

Richard Wright

The idea of heaven - as a perfect place where God lives and where you end up if you live right - is an essential part of our life, our dreams, our hopes. There is no perfect proof of heaven, but the idea lives: there is an archetypal image of heaven in our mind and we recognise this image again and again in art: paintings, music and poetry; and in the magical moments of life: love, birth and death.

Twombly Heaven

Easter is about a dream to get into Heaven. Jesus did it.
