When it comes to looking at the meaning that Christian holiness has had for the believer is indispensable to ask for the underlying content of art which he has sought to represent it in painting and sculpture. Taking as a general base concerning essential esthetic of figurative art, the test takes some among the many saints of Roman Catholicism most popular in the Colombian ambit, looking at his remote origin and evolution that each one of them has recorded throughout history. That survey allows settle an “ideologization” of art to be put at the service of interests of institutional type and therefore the confession of faith that the art wanted to support. It concludes pointing to its possible renewal because since its birth in the Christian scope it did not pretend anything other than refers the believer beyond the obvious limitation of the figurative.
