In 2018, the installation of a red stained-glass window in one of the Old Church's chapels sparked a fierce public debate and a years-long legal dispute. The commotion surrounding the work Anastasis by artist Giorgio Andreotta Calò raised the question of how contemporary art fits into an ancient monument. Since then, every year, on the longest day, we talk about the relationship between heritage and art.
In this inaugural edition, architectural philosopher and writer Patrick Healy talked about the spatial relationships of light as well as the history and different religious implications of stained glass in churches and monuments.
