Present-day gothic art displays a wide range of inspirational sources, both those
of the original gothic art style as well as more contemporary ideas. Gothic art
began as a Christian art form concerned with displaying images of the Bible in compelling
and emotional ways. This is easily recognizable when viewing a dark and somber crucifixion
painting, but was present in not only paintings, but sculpture and architecture
as well. The mysterious and lofty cathedrals, which stood as testaments to the awesome
immensity of God, meant not only to make this idea known by its patrons, but a fully
experienced realization.
Gothic art has undergone a slight change of inspirational sources but has always
stuck to its original form of dark and solemn images. Though much of the gothic
art in the gothic art gallery at Imagekind does not contain Christian motifs, similar
solemn and dark sentiments influence contemporary gothic art. Contemporary gothic
art evolved from a desire by the artists to display movingly grotesque images meant
to elicit an understanding of the darker side of the human psyche.
