Every second Friday, take a break and drop in for a casual screening of a film from the Museum’s Robert A. Roth Study Center. Each short documentary provides insight into the work of a different artist from the IAM collection. 

The Reverend Howard Finster used painting to transmit his religious visions. His paintings, or ​“sermons,” combine written text, such as biblical quotes and prophetic writing, with fantastical imagery. A self-proclaimed ​“man of visions,” Howard Finster worked tirelessly, joyfully and with unyielding faith in his mission to paint sacred art, producing at least 46,991 paintings, a body of work widely celebrated during his lifetime.
