Flowers have, throughout history, inspired artists, writers and creatives. FLOWERS – FLORA IN CONTEMPORARY ART & CULTURE seeks to reveal the myriad ways that flowers continue to be depicted by artists and their omnipresence within our contemporary culture. Occupying two floors and over nine major gallery spaces, this exhibition features large-scale installations, original art, photography, fashion, archival objects and graphic design exploring the ongoing influence of flowers on creativity and human expression.

Aside from studies of their inherent beauty and drama, flowers are also utilised as symbols, signifiers or metaphors for human emotions and impulses.  Flora lies at the heart of myths and stories that inform our cultural outlook and language. Recognised as unparalleled objects of beauty in nature, artists continue to evoke the power and beauty of flora to convey a multitude of messages and meanings.

Unexpected Perspectives features sixteen of Morell’s inventive photographs, drawn from the Museum’s holdings. In addition to his camera obscura works, this exhibition will also highlight a selection of photographs from Flowers for Lisa. This varied series of floral still lifes alludes to philosophy, art history, and mortality through both physical and digital manipulations.

Morell’s complex images subvert our expectations, uncovering new interest and beauty in familiar subjects. As he explains, “It’s encouraging to see strangeness come out of what we all know.”

A Legacy in Light brings together a selection of the exceptional photographic works within the CINTAS Foundation’s collection. This segment of the Foundation’s archives, built over the years, represents diverse perspectives and creative visions. While most of the artists in the show are Visual Arts recipients of the prestigious CINTAS Fellowships, the Foundation has recently introduced a Photography category, whose first winner is also included. This is not only evidence of the importance that this institution grants to the medium, but also of the significant presence that photography has within the complex and rich landscape of Cuban art and culture.
