Editing Lyonel Feininger (section)

==In popular culture==
In Robert M. Pirsig's ''[[Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance]]'' (1974) the narrator finds a print of Feininger's "Church of the Minorites" hanging in the office that used to be his in his earlier life as Phaedrus.
He writes that his friend "had frowned because it was a print and prints are of art and not art themselves [...] But the print had an appeal to him that was irrelevant to the art in that the subject, a kind of Gothic cathedral, created from semiabstract lines and planes and colors and shades, seemed to reflect his mind's vision of the Church of Reason and that was why he'd put it here." Finding the print jolts loose "an avalanche of memory" of the very place his madness started.<ref name="Pirsig 1974 p. 180">{{cite book |last=Pirsig |first=Robert M. |url=https://archive.org/details/zenartofmotorcyc00pirsrich/page/180/mode/2up |title=Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance |publisher=Morrow |year=1974 |publication-place=New York |page=180 |isbn=9780688002305 |oclc=600362397 |url-access=registration |via=Internet Archive}}</ref>
