The exhibition 'Florencio Maíllo. Del Jardín del Bosco' presents a significant body of work by the artist Florencio Maíllo, created between 2013 and 2015, through various plastic procedures including drawing, painting, and screen printing. This project aims to foster a dialogue between Maíllo's contemporary artistic vision and the iconic 'The Garden of Earthly Delights' panel by the Dutch painter Hieronymus Bosch. Complementing this dialogue, the exhibition integrates a curated selection of 37 pieces from the permanent collection of the Museo Nacional de Artes Decorativas. These selected pieces share thematic and functional aspects with Bosch's work, and their display is structured around five thematic axes: 'Caballo' (Horse), 'Desnudo' (Nude), 'Frutos' (Fruits), 'Plantas y flores' (Plants and Flowers), and 'Fluidos' (Fluids). The artist Florencio Maíllo, born in Mogarraz, Salamanca, in 1962, is a recognized painter and sculptor with numerous national and international awards and exhibitions. His work in this exhibition is characterized by a rich, complex visual language that reinterprets themes of desire, memory, and the ephemeral, drawing parallels with the allegorical and symbolic richness of El Bosco's early 16th-century masterpiece. The exhibition's presentation includes fragments from Luis Peñalver Alhambra, which further enhance the conceptual connection between Maíllo's art and the historical context, exploring themes of intertwined passions and appetites.
