Love has inspired some of the most intense and recognizable images in the history of art.
The Art of Love is an immersive exhibition dedicated to the emotions that bring us closer together: desire, tenderness, passion, intimacy, melancholy, and vulnerability.
From Gustav Klimt’s iconic kiss, to the dramatic loves captured by Francesco Hayez, Ford Madox Brown, or Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, and the intimacy and emotional tension found in the works of Edvard Munch, the exhibition brings together masterpieces that have transformed love into a universal language.
The romantic universe is further enriched by Symbolist and Pre-Raphaelite visions signed by John William Waterhouse, John Everett Millais, Frank Dicksee, and Evelyn De Morgan, as well as ideals of beauty and human closeness in works by Sandro Botticelli, Henri Matisse, Auguste Rodin, William-Adolphe Bouguereau, and Titian.
Monumental projections, sound, and animation invite you to step inside these famous works and experience love as imagined by great artists, from the Renaissance to modernity.
