11/05/2025: The Bramante Cloister is an extraordinary example of Renaissance architecture. It is the work of Donato Bramante (1444-1515), who, after moving from Milan to Rome after the fall of Ludovico il Moro, became the first architect to Pope Julius II and a great rival of Michelangelo. It is part of the complex that also includes the adjacent Church of Santa Maria della Pace.
"Flowers. From the Renaissance to Artificial Intelligence" offers a journey through the inexhaustible evocative power of flowers, capable of uniting art, science, and technology in a universal history that spans centuries: from the masterpieces of Jan Brueghel and Ai Weiwei to the most recent experiments in contemporary art with digital technologies.
Fragile and powerful, flowers speak a universal language capable of traversing centuries and cultures. They recount emotions, celebrate beauty, protest in silence, and preserve ancient stories. And it is precisely to them that the Cloister of the Bramante in Rome dedicates an extraordinary exhibition.
“Flowers are much more than simple decorative elements,” explains Natalia de Marco, artistic director of the Cloister of the Bramante. “They are universal symbols that represent all aspects of life: from resistance to spirituality, from love to conflict, from science to ecology.”
This sensorial journey comes to life in an exhibition that unites works from the past and present, offering the public a new interpretation of the role that flowers have played, and still play today, in the evolution of our history and our society.
The more than 90 works on display come from 10 different countries around the world: the Cloister of the Bramante involves prestigious institutions such as the Louvre, the Musée d'Orsay, the Petit Palais, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, and the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew in London. Lenders also include the Borghese Gallery, the Casanatense Library, the Badisches Landesmuseum in Karlsruhe, and the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
