" High-Tech Coming to Chicago Art Institute Aug 7, 4:11 PM EST Science is art at the Art Institute of Chicago The museum recently hired Francesca Casadio, who has studied in Italy and has degrees in chemistry and in arts and humanities, for its conservation science program Such analysis can help figure out how a painting might have looked when it was freshly painted or authenticate works of art by studying their chemical composition "Restoration was aimed at making the pictures look good, now conservators are more interested in attempting to prevent unnecessary degradation and also interpreting each work through the knowledge of its material and its condition "We talk now more of conservation than restoration," said Casadio, who has worked on a major study of changes to Michelangelo's statue of David 75 million grant from the Mellon Foundation, the Art Institute plans to buy equipment so it can do high-tech analysis of some of its treasures In the past, the museum relied on other institutions for some of this scientific analysis The museum has hired an expert in conservation science, and with a $2 Sales have jumped from under 3,000 for all of 2002 to 17,000 just last month, according to Tan Books, a publisher based in Rockville, Ill They don't buy our stuff "It's a bit of a sore spot for us," says Dan Balow, executive director of international services for Tyndale, based in Carol Stream, Ill " Meanwhile, "The Da Vinci Code" has more than 6 million copies in print since being published a year ago and has created a mini-industry of best sellers, even as some Catholic retailers decline to stock it But Brown has been criticized for being too liberal-minded, favoring the ancient world's rival secret-knowledge ("Gnostic") sects and depicting centuries-old folk tales as fact " Books about Mary Magdalene are selling well, too "Blasphemy is delivered in a soft voice with a knowing chuckle," freelance writer Sandra Miesel observed last September in Crisis, a conservative Catholic magazine Thanks to Gibson's film, which features a graphically violent portrayal of the crucifixion, religious publishers such as Tyndale, Tan Books and Crossway have seen enormous jumps in sales Some find it too heretical and won't even touch it , reports great interest in "The Gospel of Mary Magdalene," a fragmentary text rejected by church fathers, and Margaret Starbird's "The Woman With the Alabaster Jar," which argues that Jesus and Mary Magdalene were indeed married "So many churches are getting involved "Holy Blood, Holy Grail," a nonfiction work first published in 1982 and an acknowledged inspiration for "The Da Vinci Code," has more than 750,000 copies in print Tyndale reports that a 150,000 first printing of the film's companion book, called "The Passion," sold out so quickly that some stores may have to wait up to two weeks before an additional printing of 250,000 fully arrives Brown's novel speculates that Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married, for which no documentary evidence exists, and depicts the Catholic clergy as a pack of sinister liars " Gibson has cited "The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ," a 19th-century memoir that describes Jewish mobs as "cruel" and "hardhearted," as a source for his movie One of Brown's sources, Elaine Pagels' "The Gnostic Gospels," sold over 100,000 copies in 2003, seven times higher than the year before Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ" is a brutal box-office hit that has angered Jewish and Christian leaders, who allege that the movie could encourage anti-Semitism "Most stores were somewhat skeptical about the book, especially since it's a big coffee table edition Published by Crossway Books with a first printing of 175,000, "The Passion" now has 1 It's too offbeat A book unrelated to Gibson's film, "The Passion of Jesus Christ," by Baptist minister John Piper, came out in January Paul, Minn Brown's "Angels and Demons," a religious thriller published in 2000, now has 4 million copies in print and is currently selling 100,000 copies a week 'The Passion' Spurs Religious Book Sales Mar 3, 8:26 AM EST Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code" is a million-selling historical thriller that has angered Catholics by attacking the clergy and implying Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married Inner Traditions, a spiritual publisher based in Rochester, Vt As theology, they are far, far apart Sales have also gone up for other books by Pagels, a popular scholar of Gnosticism, including "The Origin of Satan" and "Adam, Eve and the Serpent Co-authored by Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh and Henry Lincoln, "Holy Blood" has spent four months on The New York Times' list of nonfiction paperback best sellers even as many have disputed its findings And now many of them don't have copies 6 million copies in print "Both `The Da Vinci Code' and `The Passion' have gotten people more interested in Mary Magdalene," Rob Meadows, Inner Traditions' vice president of sales and marketing, says But as phenomena, they have had a common affect, driving sales for a wave of Christian-themed books, some of them highly controversial Gibson's movie was based on an old-fashioned but distinctive reading of the Gospels â€â€? so distinctive, critics say, that "The Passion" could revive the notion that Jews were collectively responsible for Christ's death "We've sold a number through stores, but a lot of them are going through John Piper's ministry," says publicist Kathy Jacobs of Crossway, based in St The book isn't about the movie but it answers a
