Following the great success of the immersive show ‘Tutankhamun’, the new exhibition LEONARDO DA VINCI - UOMO UNIVERSALE opened in Hamburg on 17 September 2024. This impressive show takes visitors deep into the life and work of the Italian genius. Leonardo da Vinci's universe comes to life with replicas of his inventions, masterful images, captivating video contributions and an elaborate multimedia production.
Leonardo da Vinci – uomo universale
Leonardo da Vinci was a true ‘uomo universale’ - a man who excelled in a wide variety of disciplines. His contemporaries such as Michelangelo, Raphael and Botticelli were also outstanding, but it was Leonardo's extraordinary versatility that set him apart. From art and engineering to mathematics and anatomy, his astute observations and revolutionary inventions changed the world forever.
The exhibition LEONARDO DA VINCI - UOMO UNIVERSALE shows replicas of da Vinci's inventions as well as all 16 works of art that can be attributed to him without any doubt today. However, the centrepiece of the show is the immersive staging, which uses state-of-the-art projection techniques to convey the work and the world of thought of the genius in a new way. Visitors are literally drawn into da Vinci's world.
The Gaußhöfe
Not far from the Thalia Theatre in Gaußstraße you will find the Gaußhöfe, where changing immersive exhibitions are shown. Modern projectors can be used to bring exhibitions to life. The best way to reach the Gaußhöfe by public transport is to take the S1 to Ottensen. Gaußhöfe is also home to the Italian restaurant Farina meets Mehl, which rounds the trip off with culinary delights.
