‘The Madonna‘ by Paul Baines cites the popular music performer Madonna as an indicator of the insubstantiation of the Christian belief system. The Western government no longer feels it economically viable to support organised religion, with the exception of minority religions, mainly imported, for the fear of cultural backlash and in some circumstances, terrorist reprisals.

Madonna Louise Ciccone Ritchie (born August 16, 1958), American recording artist and performer recently invited the world to celebrate her half-centenary, her carefully orchestrated coronation as the eternal matriarch of the modern age was a political success. Her image remains intact, although the shift in consciousness reveals a new encroachment of populist thinking over subjective and spiritual enquiry. The siren meets the mother.

Her new adoptive role has been achieved with the help of an army of PR, media, beauty and fitness experts. With finances comparable to many of today’s religions, the unquestioned ceremony has passed into the annals of a crib note history solely constructed for the benefit of brand awareness and profit.

‘The Madonna’ is available as print or printed canvas. Colour vector illustration. Dimensions: 44″ x 55″.
