The Benedictine Abbaye de Saint-André near Bruges published the quarterly Art d’Église. On pages 138–139 Frédéric Debuyst writes on the concrete castings that Roman Verostko, then a monk at Saint Vincent Archabbey in Pennsylvania, made in 1966–67 for the walls of its new monastery, which is shown on the cover. Verostko formed the molds by burning scriptural phrases and brush strokes into Styrofoam with hot irons. He later turned his studio into an “electronic scriptorium” of computers and pen plotters.
