06:37, 7 January 2007 (UTC)I know Bingzhen wasn't a priest or a worker in religious art, but he was involved in a significant theological dispute. If there's complaints, and this survives, I'll remove him.--T. Anthony 18:30, 17 November 2005 (UTC)

Consider a renaming of article to something that expresses that their art has been INFLUENCED by Roman Catholicism?? Antidote 22:51, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
Something like List of Catholic artists who's work reflect Catholicism but obviously shortened. Antidote 22:54, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

- I will consider that in truth. Although I'll need to think of a name that doesn't sound too awkward, POV, or wordy. As it's technically Monday I intend to be down for about a week here soon.--T. Anthony 06:27, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

- Okay I changed it to "List of Catholic religious artists," which isn't great, but does describe that these are workers in religious art.--T. Anthony 06:30, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

I think most of the names here fit this current title.--T. Anthony 06:42, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Current artists?
I think there's a big gap when it comes to current artists on this that probably needs to be filled. Anyone know any major Catholic church artists of the post-1900 period?--T. Anthony 07:17, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
Georges Rouault comes to mind, and surely Salvador Dali, who became very Catholic after the WWII and painted many largescale religious compositions. Anchorite 15:36, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Renominate this entry for deletion
There are over 500 entries alone for Italian artists from 1300-1700; nearly all painted art for Roman Catholic churches. For over 75%, this was either their sole, main, or master output.
If you add all the spanish artists from 1300-1800, the list starts becoming meaningless. CARAVAGGISTI 06:37, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
- There's been thousands of sculptors in history, but we have List of sculptors. "I hate lists" is not itself a reason for deletion.--T. Anthony 16:13, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
