Fondazione Palazzo Te presents the exhibition "Inventare la natura. Leonardo, Arcimboldo, Caravaggio", curated by Barbara Furlotti and Guido Rebecchini, which closes the year of the 500th anniversary. The exhibition, set up in the monumental halls, brings the masterpieces of the three masters into dialogue with the frescoes of Giulio Romano. The itinerary is divided into seven thematic sections (Creating, Destroying, Surprising, Knowing, Reproducing, Astonishing, Animating) that explore the relationship between art and nature in the court culture of the 16th century, from creative to destructive force, from wonder to scientific knowledge.
