Saint Paul the Apostle Church
Read MoreSaint Joseph Altar
Stanford White designed the Saint Joseph altar. The statue was modeled after Chandler Berrian, the donor, who was a son of one of the early rectors of Trinity Episcopal church and a convert to Catholicism.
Today, the church is active in working with artists, sponsoring art exhibits at the church, providing networking opportunities, and fostering dialog in the artistic community. Openings NY, a project of the Paulist Fathers for artists, has regular exhibits (generally at the church) exploring broad spiritual themes. A recent exhibit explored the elusive mystery of spirit, body, and soul through a variety of visual media, including photography, painting, drawing, mixed media, and sculpture while another featured the work of Iraqi refugees. Frank Sabatté is the director of Openings NY. Frank is an artist and Paulist father and his work is presented on his website. Frank kindly provided me with detailed information on the church that I have used in this gallery.
