Following one of the most successful interactive exhibitions, Van Gogh Alive – The Experience, which was visited last year by more than 200,000 people in Athens, another promising exhibition is coming to the Greek capital.

“Leonardo Da Vinci: 500 Years of Genius” is being presented from November 30 till March 30 and visitors may admire the full range of Da Vinci’s achievements 500 years after his death.

Three exhibitions unite to create an immersive audiovisual experience exploring the incredible life and work of the famous artist and inventor, infiltrating the mind of the absolute Homo Universalis.

Da Vinci’s most popular painting will rightfully capture the attention of the visitors, as the secrets of Mona Lisa are about to be revealed for the first time by Pascal Cotte and the Lumiere Technology Institute with a detailed scientific analysis. The portrait of Mona Lisa or “la Gioconda” is one of the most valuable paintings in the world and its fame rests mostly on the enigmatic expression on the face of Lisa Gherardini.

It is well known that Da Vinci was also an inventor. 75 models of his inventions, interactive machines and copies of his famous codes and more than 200 exhibits that have been designed in collaboration with the Leonardo da Vinci Museum in Rome are on display.

Leonardo da Vinci is one of the most influential artists in history and he also laid the foundations for some of the most important inventions of mankind, such as flying machines, water and land machines and numerous other innovations. Don’t miss the chance to discover them and go through a unique journey in space and time.
