The exhibition is co-curated by Eike Schmidt, director of the Uffizi, together with Laura Donati, curator in the Department of Prints and Drawings at the Uffizi Galleries. The exhibition draws its title from the Divina Commedia by Florentine poet Dante. The exhibition will occupy ten galleries connected to those that hold Caravaggio’s works, located in the Uffizi’s main building. Each gallery engages with an individual theme, including “Dialogue with Caravaggio,” “Garden of the Renaissance,” “Garden of Color,” “Garden of Nature,” “Garden of the Cosmos” and “Garden of the Erotic.” Together, they feature approximately sixty works or groups of gunpowder paintings that vary in size, in addition to select artist sketches that illustrate the creative process.
