SPRING | Programme Guide April–July 2026
“Flowers, though not exclusively associated with the arrival of spring – even though that is not the only time of year they bloom – are a recurring motif, whether explicit or symbolic, in the rich and diverse cultural expression of our species across the globe.
(…)
The next time you look at a flower, remember that, despite their transience and fragility, flowers are extraordinary actors and natural stages on which cooperation, competition, deception and desire are played out in scenes of varying complexity – the very same ingredients that make up the stage dramas which have captivated humanity’s attention and passions for millennia.”
Ivo Meco, in the SPRING 2026 programme booklet
