The Times They Are A-Changin’. The Second Vatican Council. Art and Video History Exhibition

Exactly sixty years after the conclusion of the Second Vatican Council, the Foundation for Religious Sciences presents a visual and documentary exhibition on one of the most profound and transformative events in the contemporary history of the Church.

The exhibition “The Times They Are A-Changin’. The Second Vatican Council. Art and Video History Exhibition” will be open from October 17, 2025, to January 6, 2026, in a dedicated space within the halls of Palazzo Pepoli.
Conceived as part of the initiatives for the 2025 Jubilee, the exhibition conveys the spirit of a council that succeeded in combining tradition and openness, giving shape to a new language for faith, for dialogue with other religions, and for engagement with modernity.

The project — a collaboration among FSCIRE Secretary Prof. Alberto Melloni, Deputy Secretary Prof. Federico Ruozzi, Fabio Nardelli, and Marta Scalabrini — offers a journey of knowledge and experience, where history intertwines with the voices, images, and artistic expressions of an era of radical change.
