Beauty is the key to mystery and it refers to transcendence. It is an invitation to savor life and to dream of the future. This is why the beauty of created things cannot satisfy, and it arouses this secret nostalgia for God that a lover of beauty like Saint Augustine knew how to interpret with unparalleled words: “Very late, I loved you, oh Beauty so old and so new, very late, I loved you! (26).

May your multiple paths, artists of the world, lead you all to the infinite ocean of beauty where wonder becomes admiration, intoxication, indescribable joy!
