Alexander Zhyvotkov ‘Anno Domini’ are now represented in the Pontifical Lateran University in Rome (known as “The Pope’s University”). These kind of events prove art knows no borders.
On 26 March 2019, during His private visit to the Pontifical Lateran University in Rome (known as “The Pope’s University” since most of his students are from the Diocese of Rome, even though nowadays the University is open to a great number of students coming from all over the world), the Holy Father, as proposed by the Magnificent Rector Professor Vincenzo Bonomo, received as a gift an artistic Crucifix.
During the meeting with Pope Francis, Stedley Art Foundation founder Stella Beniaminova said that only the spiritual elevation evoked in artistic beauty will be able to help eliminate violence and banality in the world, opening luminous paths of hope that may allow different components to dialogue and to complete each other.
