We pray for you
Marcelo Lerer
Is proposing spiritual and religious freedom and tolerance as a
possibility within our global community. In a series of digital collages
Lerer plays with displacing the religious practice of prayer from its
original context and hence we witness Jewish, Muslim, Christian, Hindu
and Buddhist practitioners praying together for example in a derelict
building in New York, on a square in Barcelona or at the Parliament
building in Copenhagen. The collages have been shown in various
contexts; printed on wood or in Lerer’s intercultural calendar where the
holidays of the 5 major world religions are integrated.
