| Popis: | Svoju duhovnost mons. Adam Muchtin više je izrekao u slikanju negoli u pisanju. Autor ističe da on piše i slika iz potrebe, ne toliko svoje unutarnje, već neke druge, možda samo pastoralne. Umjetnik jednostavno treba samoću i šutnju kako bi ne radio nego stvarao. Osjeća potrebu šutnje i samoće kako bi čovjek najbolje tu vidio sebe. Duhovni život po njemu nije u stjecanju savršenih krjeposti nego, iznad svega, u iskrenosti pred Bogom. U Muchtinovim riječima „Treba izaći i raditi izvan crkve“ autor prepoznaje ne samo duh Drugog vatikanskog sabora, već i stav pape Franje. Muchtin govori o ženama kao vjernim Isusovim slušateljicama svjestan da su one njegovo najbrojnije slušateljstvo. Autor ističe da izraz Muchtinove duhovnosti treba uočiti u crkvi na Vežici i u minijaturnom župnom stanu uključujući i boje koje rabi u umjetničkim slikama jer sve to odgovara na pitanje zbog čega je želio da zaštitnica župe bude Mala Terezija. Upravo ono što je malo veliko je u očima Božjim. Adam Muchtin reveals his spirituality more through painting than through writing. The author emphasizes that he writes and paints out of necessity, not so much his own, but some other, perhaps only pastoral. The artist simply needs solitude and silence in order not to work but to create. He feels the need for silence and solitude in order to see himself better. According to him, spiritual life is not in the acquisition of perfect virtues but, above all, in sincerity before God. In Muchtin’s words “One should go out and work outside of the church”, the author recognizes not only the spirit of the Second Vatican Council, but also the position of Pope Francis. Muchtin speaks of women as faithful listeners of Jesus aware that they are his most numerous audience. The author points out that the expression of Muchtin’s spirituality should be noticed both in the church in Vežica and in the small parish apartment, including the colours he used in his paintings, because all this answers the question why he wanted St. Therese to be the patron saint of the parish. What is small, is great in the eyes of God. |
