Flora, the botanical art of Andreas Diaz Andersson at Cadogan Gallery in Milan, Italy.

Milan hosts a new event in the Cadogan SOLO exhibition program with Flora, the solo exhibition of Swedish-Mexican artist Andreas Diaz Andersson (Falsterbo, 1989). From March 11 to April 5, 2025, Cadogan Gallery welcomes a visual and material reflection on the link between nature, classification and form, in a journey that combines science and art. Andersson takes his cue from Carl von Linné’s Systema Naturae, the revolutionary method of classifying species introduced in the 18th century. The Swedish botanist redefined perception the knowledge of the natural world, creating a model that is still the basis of scientific taxonomy today. The exhibition Flora stems from this intersection of order and creativity, translating scientific precision into a refined and evocative visual language. Andersson’s works, while maintaining a minimal aesthetic, conceal a surprising depth. Made with textiles and mixed media-acrylic, plasticolor and spray paint on cotton canvas-they reveal themselves in their complexity only upon close observation. Delicate geometries, layered textures and the play of light and shadow create a shifting spatial dimension in which the viewer’s perception becomes an integral part of the work.

Andersson’s poetics develop in a balance between abstraction and illusion, where form emerges as the result of meticulous research into materials. The Swedish-Mexican artist explores botanical structure not through traditional representation, but by reinterpreting it in a textile key. The result is a visual experience that recalls the delicacy of natural textures, transformed into works that invite silent reflection. Active on the international art scene, Andersson is known for his rigorous approach and ability to combine different materials into essential yet richly detailed compositions. Born in 1989 in Falsterbo, he has refined over time a personal language that has allowed him to stand out for his originality and stylistic consistency.

Founded in 1980, Cadogan Gallery has built its identity on a thoughtful curatorial vision, capable of enhancing the path of mid-career artists and consolidating relationships with collectors and industry professionals. Alongside its historic headquarters in London, located in Belgravia, and a special project space in Hampshire, the gallery has chosen Milan to develop a broader dialogue with the contemporary art scene.
