Vatican City, Jun 17, 2011 / 12:51 pm
The Vatican will celebrate Pope Benedict’s 60th anniversary of priestly ordination with a month-long exhibition featuring 60 artists from around the world.
Details of the month long exhibition entitled ‘The Splendor of Truth, the Beauty of Love’ were unveiled in Rome today.
“We wanted to think of a very fluid and generic theme closely connected to the papacy of Benedict XVI – on the one hand truth and on the other charity,” explained the Pontifical Council for Culture’s head Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi.
“It’s almost like a card of congratulations addressed to the Pope,” he said to CNA.
