The Edge Singapore

The life and art of Leonardo Da Vinci

Da Vinci, The Exhibition

-

Get to know the Renaissanc­e Man himself through the largest collection of Leonardo da Vinci’s discoverie­s in Southeast Asia. This fully interactiv­e, hands-on exhibition at Science Centre Singapore invites you to closely examine the life, art and research of this genius Italian polymath who was a world-famous painter, draughtsma­n, engineer, scientist, theorist, sculptor and architect.

The showcase will send visitors of all ages on a truly exciting and inspiring journey of art, science and nature across 10 zones featuring more than 50 fully built, lifesize inventions and over 15 fine art studies and dozens of stunning displays. They include iconic paintings such as Mona Lisa and The Last Supper, plus Da Vinci’s famous studies on the Golden Ratio and Vitruvian Man.

The exhibits were put up by trained artisans who used Da Vinci’s blueprints to design and construct his inventions, bringing to life many machines and devices — such as the parachute and scuba suit — that were designed but never created due to the lack of modern technologi­es in the 15th Century.

Now on till Jan 2, 2022. Tickets are priced at $18 per adult from www.science.edu. sg/whats-on/exhibition­s/davinci
