Review: While reading I’m struggling to follow the train of thought due to the way it’s written, I’m only getting moments of clarity every now and then. Disappointed as I was really looking forward to this book.

    Description: From a world-renowned painter, an exploration of creativity's quintessential | ??and often overlooked | ??role in the spiritual life 'Makoto Fujimura's art and writings have been a true inspiration to me. In this luminous book, he addresses the question of art and faith and their reconciliation with a quiet and moving eloquence." | ?? Martin Scorsese '[ An] elegant treatise. Fujimura's sensitive, evocative theology will appeal to believers interested in the role religion can play in the creation of art." | ?? Publishers Weekly Conceived over thirty years of painting and creating in his studio, this book is Makoto Fujimura's broad and deep exploration of creativity and the spiritual aspects of 'making." What he does in the studio is theological work as much as it is aesthetic work. In between pouring precious, pulverized minerals onto handmade paper to create the prismatic, refractive surfaces of his art, he comes into the quiet space in the studio in a discipline of awareness, waiting, prayer, and praise. Ranging from the Bible to T. S. Eliot, Mark Rothko, and Japanese Kintsugi technique, he shows how, unless we are making something, we cannot know the depth of God's being and God's grace permeating our lives. This poignant and beautiful book offers the perspective of, in Christian Wiman's words, an 'accidental theologian," one who comes to spiritual questions always through the prism of art.

    Description: Mark Rothko's classic book on artistic practice, ideals, and philosophy, now with an expanded introduction and an afterword by Makoto Fujimura Stored in a New York City warehouse for many years after the artist's death, this extraordinary manuscript by Mark Rothko (1903-1970) was published to great acclaim in 2004. Probably written in 1940 or 1941, it contains Rothko's ideas on the modern art world, art history, myth, beauty, the challenges of being an artist in society, the true nature of 'American art," and much more. In his introduction, illustrated with examples of Rothko's work and pages from the manuscript, the artist's son, Christopher Rothko, describes the discovery of the manuscript and the fascinating process of its initial publication. This edition includes discussion of Rothko's 'Scribble Book" (1932), his notes on teaching art to children, which has received renewed scholarly attention in recent years and provides clues to the genesis of Rothko's thinking on pedagogy. In an afterword written for this edition, artist and author Makoto Fujimura reflects on how Rothko's writings offer a 'lifeboat" for 'art world refugees" and a model for upholding artistic ideals. He considers the transcendent capacity of Rothko's paintings to express pure ideas and the significance of the decade-long gap between The Artist's Reality and Rothko's mature paintings, during which the horrors of the Holocaust and the atomic bomb were unleashed upon the world.

    Description: When your kink involves eating a demon's guts, what else is there to do but summon a bewitching demon to feast on? Makoto summons a demon to grant his every twisted desire, and in exchange for getting to eat the demon's guts, Makoto will give him his life! Makoto has long been ostracized because of his odd hobbies and a sexual kink others see as disgusting. One day, on a whim, he tries a demon-summoning ritual and succeeds in summoning an archduke from hell named J. Makoto sells the archduke his soul and begins a new life in hell as a monster. Living among so many unique demons helps Makoto to grow into his new role.
