Online Vernissage: Leonardo's Intellectual Cosmos
The exhibition vernissage will be streamed live on YouTube. At the center of the evening stands a lecture by Alessandro Nova, who will show that Leonardo's work can only be explored by overcoming disciplinary boundaries—from art to history to philosophy and the natural sciences—and discussion with our exhibition architect and curatorial team. We look forward to a lively discussion and many questions from the audience!
