He belongs to the Order of Friars Minor, and is currently stationed in Holy Name Province.[3] LifeLentz was born in rural Colorado to a family of Russian descent and of a Russian Orthodox background.[1][2][4] Lentz originally intended to enter the Franciscan Order as a young man in the 1960s, joining the formation program for St. John the Baptist Province, but left before taking his vows.[3] Afterward, he was inspired by his family's Eastern Christian heritage and became interested in icon painting. He took up formal study in 1977 as an apprentice painter to a master of Greek icon painting from the school of Photios Kontoglou at Holy Transfiguration Monastery in Brookline, Massachusetts.[1][2][3] During his time in the Secular Franciscan community in New Mexico, Lentz developed a close relationship to the local friars, and again felt the call to join the order. He was received into the Order of Friars Minor in New Mexico in 2003, and transferred to the Holy Name Province on the East Coast in 2008. After relocating he taught at St. Bonaventure University.[3] He is currently stationed at Holy Name College in Silver Spring, Maryland.[5] Lentz is gay. In New Mexico, Lentz taught William Hart McNichols, another gay Christian iconographer.[6] WorkLentz's icons include fourteen large images of recently canonized saints, people of various cultures and ethnicities, and modern secular political and cultural figures.[4][7] Toby Johnson calls Lentz's icon of Harvey Milk "a national gay treasure".[7] His 1994 icon of Sergius and Bacchus was first displayed at Chicago's Gay Pride Parade, and has become a popular symbol in the gay Christian community.[8] Addison H. Hart of Touchstone criticized Lentz' works for breaking with the traditional purpose of Christian icons, writing that they "do not serve as vehicles of the tradition, but as propaganda and individual expression".[9] Notes1. ^1 2 Brother Robert Lentz, ofm at Trinity Stores, retrieved 1 November 2007. 2. ^1 2 Julian of Norwich, Icon by Robert Lentz, retrieved November 1, 2007. 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url= http://www.hnp.org/publications/hnp_today_view.cfm?iid=117&aid=2381|title= Texas Church Dedicates Robert Lentz's Artwork|author= |date= February 18, 2009|work= HNP Today, hnp.org|publisher= Franciscan Friars, Holy Name Province|accessdate= December 1, 2010|deadurl= yes|archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20110716071438/http://www.hnp.org/publications/hnp_today_view.cfm?iid=117&aid=2381|archivedate= July 16, 2011|df= }} 4. ^1 An Exhibition of Contemporary Religious Art by Robert Lentz, Marian Library, retrieved November 1, 2007. 5. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.naz.edu/news/robert-wentz-speaks-on-faith-and-art-3 |title= Robert Lentz Speaks on Faith and Art, March 29–30 |date= February 23, 2012 |work= www.naz.edu |publisher= Nazareth College |accessdate=March 5, 2013}} 6. ^Mubarak Dahir (July 23, 2002)."The dangerous lives of gay priests: fearing a witch-hunt in the wake of the sex abuse scandal, gay Roman Catholic priests talk of their dedication to their work and their God—and of the secret loves that put their careers at risk", page 6.
