2021 Silent Art Auction Catalog by Cooperative Baptist Fellowship

CBF SILENT ART AUCTION 2021

Why Highlight Art? Art can give us one more way to: (1) cultivate a deeper connection in our communities, (2) empower local artists by showcasing their work, (3) encourage the global church by celebrating local expressions of the gospel through the arts, (4) tell the stories of those who are often marginalized, and (5) appreciate the people with whom we minister. We have endeavored each year to find unique pieces for the SAA, not just the run-of-the-mill tourist objects that anyone would buy as they traveled. Instead our original aim was to showcase the high quality of work that is being done by the people where many of us, as CBF Field Personnel, minister. And this often means that the artwork you find was not produced in a large factory, but actually created in small home industries by marginalized, oppressed, and in other ways, side-lined people -- people in difficult situations creating things of beauty from the natural materials created by God. Each year the Silent Auction is different. The new artists we meet in our work, the new work of our long-term artists, and the pieces our fellow field personnel discover in their areas of ministry shape the unique collection of pieces we bring to the General Assembly. As CBF’s Arts Coordinators, Jonathan and I cherish our work on behalf of artists, the global church, CBF constituents and the ever blossoming dialog taking place between the arts and faith. We believe that the arts are close to the heart of God, that we are all fulfilling God’s intent for the creation when we create new forms, symbols and meanings from the materials of the original creation. The items for auction represent the lives and ministries of the CBF field personnel as well as artists from the areas where field personnel are located. Also CBF Field Personnel who are also artists are highly encouraged to contribute. The arts are a God-given means for becoming conscious of our shared humanity, a consciousness much needed in our world today as we face increasing sentiments that encourage division and isolation. More than ever we need the beautiful and unifying peace offered through our Lord.

Many of the pieces have been purchased directly from the artists themselves. Ninety percent of the starting bid is the cost of the work. Ten percent will help offset the cost of hosting the Silent Auction at the CBF General Assembly. Proceeds above the starting bid will go directly to the programing funds and projects as determined by the field personnel who contributed the item. .

is item was made by an inmate in Denpasar Women’s Prison in Bali Indonesia. Many women in the prison use their time making beautiful items such as this scarf. Some had these skills before going to prison and others learn through various programs or from other inmates. When an item like this is purchased it helps the women to purchase better food and sometimes to help their families on the outside by relieving some of the nancial burden. Tina mentors prisoners through painting, drawing, and dance in Bali’s high security prisons. Jonathan and Tina Bailey serve in Bali, Indonesia, with emphasis on spiritual expression through music, dance and visual arts. Jonathan focuses on building community in the context of traditional Balinese music ensembles. Together, and with a growing number of like-minded people, an inclusive community that bridges ethnicity and religion continues to develop. Such creating-in-community not only symbolizes God’s creative action in our lives. It trains us to love and accept others who are different from us.
