The Light of the World: Artist Talk

In Dialogue at Saladrigas Gallery: Dr. Carol Damian and Dr. Adriana Herrera invites guests to join curators Dr. Carol Damian and Dr. Adriana Herrera for a special evening conversation on The Light of the World, a Christ-centered exhibition exploring the depiction of Jesus Christ across centuries and cultures. During this program, the curators will discuss the exhibition’s catalyst, development, and curatorial vision, offering deeper insight into the ideas, research, and selection process behind the works on view.

On view from March 12 through May 6, 2026, The Light of the World brings together paintings, sculptures, and drawings from the 16th century to today, including Russian icons, Renaissance works, paintings from the Cuzco School, late 19th- and early 20th-century Latin American art, and contemporary works by local and international artists. Through this dialogue, visitors will gain a richer understanding of how the exhibition came together and how artists across time and place have interpreted the life and image of Jesus Christ.

This event takes place at the Olga M. and Carlos A. Saladrigas Gallery at Belen Jesuit Preparatory School, extending the exhibition experience through conversation, reflection, and curatorial perspective.
