Video Games If They Were Medieval Religious Paintings

Ryan Nance June 9, 2015

The imaginative work of Dan Hernandez (in his exhibition at New York's Kim Foster Gallery) takes the structure and narrative of Sega-era video games and redoes them visually and symbolically with religious imagery. 

Titled Genesis 2014 (for the Sega Genesis console) includes side scrolling fighting games to top-down shooters. I want to see a kickstarter project to turn these into actual videos games soon.
