#Heavenly bodies commercial drivers#
On top of that, the overtly commercial nature of fashion - versus the less acknowledged but very real commercialism of art - leads some people to dismiss fashion as an art form.īut with the runaway success of “ Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty” in 2011, fashion exhibits started becoming reliable traffic drivers for the Met. The First Monday in May, a documentary about the making of the Met Gala, the Costume Institute’s annual fundraiser, begins with Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton, Met trustee (and Vogue editor) Anna Wintour, then-Met director Thomas Campbell, and former Costume Institute curator Harold Koda all explaining why fashion has historically been treated as a second-class discipline within the museum: because it’s known as a decorative art and not a “real” art (like painting, sculpture, or architecture), because it’s still considered women’s domain and therefore frivolous, because the department is literally located in a basement. This final figure cements fashion’s dominance at the nation’s best-known art institution. All told, 1,659,647 people turned out for the Costume Institute’s dramatic depiction of Catholic fashion, according to a release from the museum. The show closed out its five-month run as the museum’s most popular show of all time, beating out 1978’s “Treasures of Tutankhamun” for the top spot. In early May, all eyes were on the opening of a new exhibit from the Met’s Costume Institute, “ Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination,” which showed potential to draw record crowds to the museum and provide it with a major source of income at a moment of financial uncertainty. 55 ( Z) Where, O Death, is your victory? Where, O Death, is your sting?” 56 The sting of ( AA)death is sin, and ( AB)the power of sin is the Law 57 but ( AC)thanks be to God, who gives us the ( AD)victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.At New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, fashion reigns supreme. 54 But when this perishable puts on the imperishable, and this mortal puts on immortality, then will come about the saying that is written: “ ( Y) Death has been swallowed up in victory. 53 For this perishable must put on ( W)the imperishable, and this ( X)mortal must put on immortality. 51 Behold, I am telling you a ( R)mystery we will not all sleep, but we will all be ( S)changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet for ( T)the trumpet will sound, and ( U)the dead will be raised imperishable, and ( V)we will be changed. The Mystery of Resurrectionĥ0 Now I say this, brothers and sisters, that ( O)flesh and blood cannot ( P)inherit the kingdom of God nor does the perishable inherit ( Q)the imperishable. 49 Just as we have ( M)borne the image of the earthy, we ( N)will also bear the image of the heavenly. 48 As is the earthy one, so also are those who are earthy and as is the heavenly one, ( L)so also are those who are heavenly. 47 The first man is ( J)from the earth, ( K)earthy the second man is from heaven. 46 However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural then the spiritual. 45 So also it is written: “The first ( G) man, Adam, became a living person.” The ( H)last Adam was a ( I)life-giving spirit.
If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. It is sown ( B)a perishable body, it is raised ( C)an imperishable body 43 it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in ( D)glory it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power 44 it is sown a ( E)natural body, it is raised a ( F)spiritual body.
41 There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars for star differs from star in glory.Ĥ2 ( A)So also is the resurrection of the dead. 40 There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the glory of the heavenly is one, and the glory of the earthly is another.
