On the Road

Palacio de Gelmirez, Santiago de Compostela, Spain

Commemorating the pilgrimage of St. Francis of Assisi to Santiago de Compostela exactly 800 years ago, the sumptuous exhibition of visual art emphasizes the affinities and the gap between the age of Francis and ours.

The first hall of the palace, with works by Jannis Kounellis, Yves Klein and Antón Lamazares, is dominated by gold, a nod to the Byzantine tradition of which Giotto is derived and transformed.
