Imagine
Exhibitions Gallery presents Da Vinci The Exhibition, a comprehensive and
interactive look at the brilliance of the original Renaissance man, Leonardo da
Vinci at The Venetian Las Vegas®. Featuring more than 65 fully built, life-size
inventions, more than 20 fine art studies and dozens of stunning displays,
guests will learn the complex beginnings and lifetime achievements of da Vinci
through his discoveries in art, engineering, flight, hydraulics, music, light,
anatomy and more.
Throughout
the exhibition’s six themed galleries, visitors will discover the breadth and
scope of da Vinci’s incredibly advanced understanding of science, mathematics,
nature, and the relationship between the three. The artist’s intricate designs
and extraordinary early concepts are spotlighted, including his ideas for the
helicopter, military tank, SCUBA, crane, clock, submarine, hang glider and plan
for a modern city. Additionally, various multimedia and documentary
presentations throughout the experience provide a multitude of supplementary
information on da Vinci’s discoveries and creative process.
In
addition to da Vinci’s role as an inventor, Da Vinci The Exhibition
investigates a collection of da Vinci’s most renowned paintings, including some
controversial works traditionally attributed to him, but not yet authenticated.
Guests will have the opportunity to thoroughly study the artistic mastery
behind such works as “Mona Lisa,” “The Last Supper,” “Portrait of a Young Man,”
“Virgin of the Rocks,” “St. John the Baptist” and more.
