News Summary
- The Holy See Pavilion is a “pilgrim” pavilion, as Cardinal José Tolentino de Mendonça describes it.
- The pavilion is dedicated to Hildegard of Bingen (1098–1179), the 12th-century German Benedictine abbess, healer, mystic and visionary.
- Brian Eno, Jim Jarmusch, Caterina Barbieri, Meredith Monk, Bhanu Kapil, Laraaji, Raúl Zurita and Kazu Makino are among the artists featured.
Some visitors leave in tears. Others feel the need to embrace. Still others remain silent for a long time. It is not sadness. But you cannot quite call it happiness either.
