Join Artistic Director of the Serpentine Galleries Hans Ulrich Obrist in conversation with Philanthropist and Creative Director of Lopud 1483 Francesca Thyssen-Bornemisza, Artist Olafur Eliasson and President and CEO of World Monuments Fund Bénédicte de Montlaur, highlighting the critical work of rejuvenating neglected heritage sites, pegged to the revival of the magical 15th-century Franciscan monastery Lopud in Croatia. The panel will not only celebrate the wonderful efforts to breathe new life into the monastery, but they’ll explore the importance of the site’s new function as a place where art, history and botanical exploration come together.
