Artists in the middle ages painted their conceptions of God in frescoes. Today, the pervasive modern art form is the cinema. Movies are the most expressive modern art form, and the one the modern culture puts the most money into. I suppose the most explicit depiction of the modern artist's concept of God is the George Burns series that began with Oh, God! In that series God first appears to a grocer as a flamboyant old Jewish man who just wants us to know he cares. The Star Trek crew went looking for God and found a malevolent energy being more like the devil.
