John Tavener

We shall see Him as He is
”Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is”. the First Epistle of St John, Chapter 3 verse 2
Tavener converted to the Russian Orthodox Church in 1977.[13] Orthodox theology and liturgical traditions became a major influence on his work. He was particularly drawn to its mysticism, studying and setting to music the writings of Church Fathers and completing a setting of the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, the principal eucharistic liturgy of the Orthodox Church: this was Tavener’s first directly Orthodox-inspired music

Vincent Ganivet

Fontaine I
Vincent Ganivet (b. 1976, lives and works in Ile-Saint-Denis) maps out a territory halfway between accident and equilibrium, work of art and found object. Going back to elementary forms (the circle) or architectural principles (the keystone), he renders their orthodoxy fragile by putting them into a state of instability.
