"This is the third stage of the exhibition 'La mente de Leonardo' which was first shown to the public in Florence last year, and then this spring in the Japanese National Museum in Tokyo.Although Leonardo is commonly known as a "universal genius", the exhibitions dedicated to him have almost always focused on soma specific area of his activity: painting, anatomy, technology, studios on water, on flight, and so on.
The Real da Vinci offers its visitors a different point of view, inviting them to explore the genius' very mode of thinking. The exhibition has been designed to present his unitary conception of knowledge as the effort to assimilate, through bold theoretical syntheses and inventive experiments, the laws that groven all of the wondrous operations of man and nature.
The Real da Vinci shows a mind tenaciously endeavoring to decipher the rational processes that animate the phenomena of the physical world as well as the "motions of thought", driven by the desire to achieve a perfect imitation of nature in the world of art."
