The LdM Gallery is a project by Istituto Lorenzo de’ Medici, a space where academic research and artistic experimentation meet within a professional setting.

Founded in 1973, Istituto Lorenzo de’ Medici prides itself with having core values aimed towards ensuring students achieve the skills necessary to creatively meet the challenges of their respective fields, skills accomplished through interdisciplinary projects and engagement within the professional sector, as well as through the interaction with the local community.

The LdM Gallery closely aides in working towards this goal, creating an efficient space for showcasing interdisciplinary fields of art within the school and collaborating with high-level projects organized in the city of Florence.

The overall mission of the LdM Gallery is to encourage the development of creativity and sophistication within the student body, generate an open dialogue between students and the public, and foster opportunities for students to experience the reality of the art world beyond an institutional setting and gain professional experience through their artwork.

 

Meg Hart, LdM Gallery Internship, 2025

As an intern at the LdM Gallery Spring 2025 Meg Hart had a chance to closely follow the preparation
of exhibitions SILENCE by the artists Carlo Bertocci, Roberto Pupi and Pietro Schillaci e NATURALLY
UNNATURAL – A New World by Andrea Marini engaging actively with artists to understand their poetics and therefore prepare a coherent show making the artists’ ideas clear to the public. She achieved that through studio visits, interviewing artists, students and viewers and help with the set-up, where she learned how to handle contemporary art works.

Furthermore, she concentrated on working with promotion and mediation with the public, supervising promotional materials online and printed as well as texts, guiding tours and preparing events in the exhibitions.

A part from the current exhibition preparations Meg Hart had a chance to work on an upcoming
issue of the book describing LdM activities and planning new possible collaborations with the LdM
gallery in the future, showing both, reliability and creativity needed for this profession.
