Gallery of Religious Art



As part of a religious art gallery, the School of Divinity has on exhibit the André Tweed collection of Ethiopian sacred artifacts and the Constantine Youssis collection of Greek icons. Both collections provide opportunity to study religious symbols and popular piety in diverse cultures.

In 2010 during the Annual Alumni Convocation, the School unveiled two Ethiopian paintings by contemporary artist Meseretu Wondie, donated anonymously in honor of the late Louis Gilden, a civil rights lawyer who dedicated himself to serving the legal needs of the oppressed.
