The End of Days opens the door to a new beginning

1479 – the year Memling delivered his enigmatic altar to St John's Hospital –  ushered in a new age: globalisation with the colonisation of America, overconsumption that systematically strained ecosystems, and new diseases that wiped out more than half of the world's population. Inspired by the figures on the altarpiece, Catalina Vicens and her ensemble Servir Antico search for alternative perspectives in old and new music, text and symbols.
