The exhibition, which runs from 10 September to 4 October, will showcase 55 projects by young artists from 28 countries, exploring responses to the global ecological crisis. The initiative was presented at Sala Marconi in Piazza Pia by Paolo Ruffini, Prefect of the Dicastery for Communication, together with Cardinal Fabio Baggio and Amber Olson Testino, President of Art Partner. The event marks the latest stage in preparations for the formal inauguration of Borgo Laudato Si’ by Pope Leo on 5 September.
