Annual Spirituality in Art Lecture: How the Easter Bunny Can Be an Icon of Doubt in Faith

DePaul University, DePaul Art Museum - Richardson Library
2350 N. Kenmore Ave.
Chicago, IL 60614

"Jeff Zimmermann is a highly regarded public muralist and narrative painter. He is a frequent exhibitor at the MCA, and you may have seen his work recently on the LaSalle Bank mural building overlooking the Kennedy Expressway this past Fall.
Jeff will be speaking about the Values and Philosophy that underlies his art. Values that helped him as a Jesuit Volunteer in Peru years ago, as well as today. Values that help him as a public muralist today and have him think twice about the Easter Bunny"!
