New York : the Terra Sancta Museum moves to the Frick Collection !
From October 1, 2025, the Frick Collection will host the exhibition “To the Holy Sepulcher: treasures from the Terra Sancta Museum”. The driving force behind this ambitious project is Xavier Salomon, Deputy Director and Chief Curator of one of New York's most prestigious museums dedicated to European art. We had the honor of meeting him in Jerusalem during one of his preparatory visits to the exhibition.
Classifying the sacred: Christian iconography in the digital age
We met up with Alix Pras, for whom looking after museum collections is both a passion and a real challenge, given the scale of the project to create the Museum of Christian Art and History in Jerusalem.
The “couriers”: The “guardian angels” of the Terra Sancta Museum Art & History
International exhibitions of the Terra Sancta Museum Art & History collections are not only an opportunity to publicize our project, but also to benefit from the expertise of other museum professionals. The exhibition “Treasures from Kings. Masterpieces from the Terra Sancta Museum” which was held in late 2023/early 2024 at Lisbon's Calouste Gulbenkian Museum, is a case in point.
Terra Sancta Museum: the Popes' showcase in the Holy Land
In the Holy Land, the cradle of Christianity, the tomb of Jesus Christ unites Christians of all denominations in a profound act of faith. This ancestral bond has led popes over the centuries to donate precious objects to the Holy Places, affirming the spiritual importance of these sites for the Church as a whole.
