Saint Hildegard of Bingen Inspires Holy See Pavilion at Venice Biennale
The Holy See’s pavilion at the Venice Biennale explores the musical and theological vision of Hildegard of Bingen through a contemporary artistic interpretation, developed with the guidance of a Benedictine nun teaching at the Pontifical Athenaeum of Sant’Anselmo.
The opening of the Venice Biennale this May has brought a significant distinction to the legacy of Saint Hildegard of Bingen. For its official pavilion, the Holy See selected the 12th-century Benedictine mystic and Doctor of the Church as a primary source of inspiration. The project, dedicated to the Biennale’s overarching theme, “The Minor Key”, was realised with the scholarly support of the St. Hildegard Academy and Sister Maura Zátonyi OSB, who serves as the Academy’s president.
