Like any American, traveling occasionally is just what I love doing and I bet you share the same stuff with me. But traveling does not mean that you would be safe. Escaping from our job and other stressful activities is just something that w Torres del Paine is among the biggest of Chiles national parks, occupying almost 600,000 acres (242,000 ha) of land in the south on the border with Argentina. It is also among the most important, receiving a significant proportion of domes
The exhibition The Mind of Leonardo, which will be held in Rome, at Palazzo Venezia, from the 1st of May to the 30th of August 2009, is meant to deal with Leonardos work in a different way, providing a complete image of it. The exhibition, indeed, which has already attracted many tourists in Romes guest houses, will not be focused on only one field of study (art, technology, anatomy, studies on water and flying, just to make few examples), but it will try to present Leonardos work from a different point of view: focusing on all the fields of study which the great scientist and artist was interested in, the exhibition is meant to look into the idea that Leonardo had of knowledge and into his analysis method, in order to make us discover that his study method featured some constants that could apply to any fields of knowledge. Leonardo, indeed, had a unitary idea of knowledge, and he was convinced that all the operations of men and nature were governed by the same rules.If you plan to travel to Rome and visit the exhibition, you will discover that the whole Leonardos work was characterised by common analysis methods, and you will personally see the results of his studies. The exhibitory spaces of Palazzo Venezia, indeed, will host original drawings and manuscripts, but also working models of Leonardos projects and digital stations to see, in a virtual way, the works that have been lost. Working models, in particular, have been built very thoroughly, following blindly Leonardos projects and using materials, like wood, which might have been used also when Leonardo lived, and together with drawings, which are very precious pieces, they make us enter the world and mind of Leonardo. Among the displayed items, a drawing and two autograph fragments with the studies for a theatre with movable stage for the staging of Polizianos Orpheus in Milan, and two drawings that document Leonardos interest in flying machines.The Rome exhibition focuses also on Leonardos artistic work: Palazzo Venezia will host some preparatory drawings, two paintings realised in Leonardos studio, Leda Spiridon and Leda Borghese (Leonardo interpreted the myth of Leda and the swan as a symbol of the unbridled vitality of nature, which could be found in all living beings) and a work realised by an anonymous Florentine artist who took inspiration from Leonardos studies on Virgin with Child and St John.Book now a 5 star hotel in Rome (the city is always overcrowded in summer), and do not miss the exhibition The Mind of Leonardo.Tickets: 9 euro, reduced 7 euroDate: 1st May 30 August 2009Location: Palazzo Venezia, Rome, Italy
