Palazzo Vecchio hosts the Municipality of Florence, therefore it often hosts events closed to the public. Find the closures and current exhibitions on the official website cultura.comune.fi.it > Palazzo Vecchio
From March 14 to June 11, 2025
In a historic first, Florence dedicates an exhibition at Palazzo Vecchio to the painter Giovanni Stradano (Jan van der Straet, Bruges 1523-Florence 1605) to celebrate five hundred years since his birth. An exceptional event for a Flemish artist who contributed significantly to the city where he chose to reside until the end of his eighty-two years. The unprecedented exhibition features approximately eighty works including paintings, drawings, prints, books, tapestries, and instruments, and offers a unique introduction to the artist, Giorgio Vasari’s most important and most versatile collaborator in decorating the ducal rooms and and the Sala Grande - known as the Salone dei Cinquecento - of ducal palace.
From March 14 to June 11, 2025, the Palazzo Vecchio Museum hosts the exhibition dedicated to Thomas J. Price, featuring sculptural works of varying scale set up within the permanent collection of the museum.
Celebrated for his large-scale figurative sculptures, Thomas J Price draws our attention to the psychological embodiment of his fictional characters, foregrounding the intrinsic value of the individual and subverting structures of hierarchy. Amalgamated from diverse sources, the works are developed through a hybrid approach of traditional sculpture and intuitive digital technology.
Price balances the presentation methods, material and scale to challenge our expectations and provide cues for deeper human connection. The artist compels the viewer to consider how and why things are made, embedding references to ancient, classical and neoclassical sculpture alongside a sophisticated understanding of the symbolic power of materials.
