Press Release
Typical depictions of Saint Francis stage a cyclical movement: The garments cast off by the saint are picked up by the cloth-merchant-father, and the indecency of the nude Saint Francis is re-shrouded by the church, as the bishop wraps him in his own cloak. Saint Francis renouncing his worldly goods is also a canonic image of revolt; it rhythmically challenges the economic conventionalities of religion and, in turn, produces the perennial disquietude expressed through iconoclasm—the literal breaking of the figure.
