Cardinal José Tolentino de Mendonça, the prefect of the Dicastery for Culture and Education, took part in the opening of the second venue of the Holy See’s pavilion at the Venice Biennale.
The Biennale, a major contemporary art exhibition that takes place every two years, will conclude on November 22. The Holy See’s pavilion, entitled “The ear is the eye of the soul,” is inspired by the works of St. Hildegard of Bingen.
The first venue features a sound installation; the second, a contemporary scriptorium.
