Holy See at the Expo 2015 Milano...

Theme "Not by Bread Alone. At the Lord's Table with all the Mankind"

The Concept

"Not by bread alone does man live, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." From this first sentence of the Gospel, is a message that the Holy See wishes to send out during its participation at Expo Milano 2015.

Food is a primary value for mankind, forever the subject of rituals, symbols, stories, calendars and rules, and also a tool for understanding one’s identity and building relationships with the world, the Creation, time and history.

The Holy See aims to focus visitors' attention on the strong symbolic relevance of feeding, and on its potential for anthropological development. Its potential is deeply social and collective, yet unfortunately, is often interpreted negatively as a reprimand for neglect and injustice.

Food is therefore not only portrayed as nourishment of the body, but as a gesture of nurturing, a meal and a convivium: a moment of encounter and communion, education and growth. This sharply contrasts with the "culture of waste," which increasingly influences today’s society, fuelling the terrible hardships of injustice and poverty.

Through its pavilion, spread over a total area of ​​747 square meters, the Holy See looks to offer its visitors a space for reflection on issues that persist today, related to food and access to food. Such issues highlight how the anthropological act of offering food is at the heart of both Christian experience, and the cultural and spiritual thinking it has generated within our history.
