“Love Live Forgive” E-Book Explores Art and Spirit


 “Live, Love, Forgive” is the new title from writer Justin St. Vincent, a writer and editor from Auckland, New Zealand, who explores the link between art and spirituality in various projects. The book, developed in partnership with the Fetzer Institute, will be available for free download as an e-book at the book’s website. It will also be available for purchase as a soft cover from amazon.com.

“This is an inquiry into creativity, love, forgiveness, spirituality, the inner-life, transformation, and more,” St. Vincent says. “It seeks to inspire, motivate, and ground people in these values, beliefs, and practices.”

St. Vincent’s new book seeks to identify and learn from a number of artists who have explored or demonstrated spirituality and a deeper meaning in their creative efforts. It focuses on the values of creativity, love, and forgiveness to create a compelling, educational, and inspiring resource that shares insights on powerful intersection of art and spirituality.

The book delves into many facets of creativity, love and spirituality, through 130 varying perspectives that include symphonic musicians, world music artists, heavy metal and hip-hop musicians, and other artists such as potters, magicians, and photographers.

St. Vincent founded the web site Xtreme Music: where Music meets Spirituality, and wrote a book trilogy exploring “The Spiritual Significance of Music” (2009-2012) that featured exclusive interviews with many of the world’s most visionary musicians and writers.
