The largest and the most comprehensive Leonardo da Vinci exhibition in the world, ‘Leonardo da Vinci Expo: A Genius in Istanbul’ is opening its doors at UNIQ Museum in Istanbul.
The most important characteristics of the largest “Leonardo da Vinci Machinery Collection” are that the replicas in the exhibition are made of wood and metal, exactly like the original designs, and no industrial-type binding elements nor any screws were used.
The exhibition also has a surprise in store for its visitors. Leonardo da Vinci’s wax replica from Madame Tussauds Istanbul will be put on display for a month.
What’s more, art lovers will be able to experience the “Flying Machine” with 3D glasses. Flying from the Haliç Bridge over the skies of 15th century Istanbul, visitors will get a chance to enjoy a unique, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The “Leonardo da Vinci Expo: A Genius in Istanbul” exhibition that includes 100 replicas of da Vinci’s original sketches, manuscripts, paintings and drawings will open at UNIQ Museum on Dec. 14 until April 7, 2018.
