February through April 15….DaVinci The Genius
- Grande Exhibitions, creators of traveling exhibitions, have created
the most comprehensive exhibition on Leonardo to tour the world.
With the assistance of Il Genio di Leonardo da Vinci Museo (Italy)
and Pascal Cotte of Lumiere Technology (France) this exhibition
brings to life the genius of Leonardo as an inventor, artist, scientist,
anatomist, engineer, architect, sculptor and philosopher. Working
from Leonardo’s codices, Italian Artisans have faithfully
crafted interactive and life-size machine inventions. These works
include the first concepts of a car, bicycle, helicopter, glider,
parachute, SCUBA, submarine, military tank and ideal city to name
a few. In addition the exhibit moves far beyond machine inventions
alone, featuring facsimiles of Leonardo’s most famous codices,
anatomical studies, Anghiari battle drawings and Renaissance art.
A recent addition is the high definition recreation of The Last
Supper at actual size (29 x 14.5ft) an impressive display that compliments
the existing 3D animations explaining the Sforza Horse, Mona Lisa
and Vitruvian Man. Da Vinci - The Genius also includes the world
exclusive Secrets of Mona Lisa - an analysis of the iconic painting,
conducted at the Louvre Museum by renowned scientific engineer,
examiner and photographer of fine art, Pascal Cotte. Suitable for
all ages, this amazing exhibition provides a fascinating insight
into not only the mind of a genius; but also into the fundamental
scientific and artistic principles that he discovered. Da Vinci
– The Genius is an inspiration for the whole family. General
