24/04/2026 - 04/10/2026
Centered on Michelangelo Pistoletto’s proclamation of Pope Francis as the “First Saint of Art,” this exhibition explores art as a space of shared responsibility, care, and transformation. Bringing together key works from across the artist’s practice, the presentation connects spiritual, cultural, and social systems through a language of reflection and participation.
At its core, the exhibition redefines holiness as a collective, lived practice—inviting viewers to consider art as a tool for imagining new forms of balance between humanity, nature, and the artificial.
