volti nel Volto: art, history and spirituality
On the occasion of the Liturgical Feast of the Shroud and the Jubilee Year of Hope, the Diocese of Turin promoted the initiative “Avvolti”, hosted in the Tent in Piazza Castello from April 28 to May 5, 2025. Among the key moments of the event was the third edition of the exhibition “volti nel Volto”, launched in 2022 in collaboration with the Accademia Albertina di Belle Arti.
The exhibition engages with the image of the Shroud, the Holy Cloth kept in Turin, which over the centuries has deeply inspired the iconography of the Face of Christ. The image of the suffering face of the Passion is placed in dialogue with centuries of artistic representations and with the icon of Divine Mercy, a radiant sign of the Resurrection.
“volti nel Volto” is an invitation to rediscover the true meaning of beauty, redeemed suffering, and hope, in order to deepen the relationship between faith, art, and culture.
The exhibition “volti nel Volto” has been transferred to Rome and inaugurated on May 27. It will remain open to the public until July 30, 2025.
