Exploring the intersection of contemporary art and apocalyptic thinking, this book delves into how artists reflect on the duality of hope and despair inherent in the concept of the Apocalypse. It examines the historical roots of apocalyptic ideas, their influence on modern society, and their role in shaping responses to contemporary crises. Through diverse artistic expressions, the work addresses themes of justice, authoritarianism, and societal fears, while questioning the utility of Doomsday as a metaphor. This multifaceted analysis integrates cultural studies, theology, and philosophy.
