Deputy Foreign Minister Ioannis Amanatidis visited the Santiago Calatrava exhibit “The renaissance of the church of St. Nicholas at Ground Zero” today, Saturday, 26 September. The exhibit is being hosted at the Benaki Museum through 25 October 2015.
Mr. Amanatidis was guided through the exhibit and congratulated the Benaki Museum directors on hosting an exhibit so emblematic for the Greeks of the Diaspora and Orthodoxy.
On completing his visit, Mr. Amanatidis stated that “the construction of the Greek Orthodox church of St. Nicholas – a point of reference for the Hellenism of New York and beyond – vindicates the many years of efforts on the part of the Archdiocese of America and the Greek Community, and sends a message of love and tolerance, values that are at the core of Orthodoxy.
