We told you regarding it when this project was announced at the beginning of March. In Cambrai, in the north of France, a disused church, the Chapelle des Jésuites, was chosen to become, for the time of an exhibition, the Cathedral of the Underworld, in which you even had the possibility of making your character appear following the Diablo IV open beta. Crazy and life-size project, the idea is exceptional and the exhibition is supposed to open its doors today. And if many people are expected to visit the many canvases of Adam Miller’s team, some are determined to stop them…
“Scandalous and indecent”
According to testimonies collected by France 3 Hauts-de-FranceAntoine Grosjean, a 25-year-old engineer, this exhibition is “a real offense to the Catholic religion”. With other members of the “Cambrai Patrimoine” association, they have planned to demonstrate today in front of the Jesuit Chapel to prevent visitors from seeing the exhibition.
We hope it will be done in the greatest calm but we hope and believe that this event will be canceled.

He and his colleagues believe that this work is “a disrespect to the Jesuits buried in the crypt more than 200 years ago”. Conversely, the vicar general and parish priest of Cambrai, Mathieu Dervaux, recalls that this church has been deconsecrated and wishes to remain neutral, understanding that this may shock some people but that there is no “no intention of the town hall to go once morest the Church”.
This anti-exposure movement is even supported by an RN municipal councilor via Facebook, where the interested party, Gérard Philippe, posted A press release where he shows his indignation and asks to “stop this indecency”.
Threats that don’t seem to be very scary
Whether one is for or once morest, the exhibition opened its doors today, and expects a large number of visitors according to Lydie Perraud and the team managing the event. The exhibition is free and will be held until June 11, the day before the Diablo IV servers reopen for 3 days during the Server Slam. Will the current event turn the event upside down or will it be a success as expected? Case to follow.
