Italian Renaissance

A New Multimedia Exhibition World Premiere

F

ollowing the highly successful exhibition From Monet to Kandinsky, Visions Alive, the exhibition displays works of four legendary artists from the Renaissance: Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Botticelli. It is also a serious educational platform, developed and designed by VISION MULTIMEDIA PROJECTS with multichannel animation graphics, dozens of modern beamers of the highest resolution, huge screens and surround sound. At the beginning of the 15th century, Italy experienced a cultural rebirth that would massively affect all sectors of society. Turning away from the preceding Gothic and Romanesque periods’ iconography, Florentine artists spurred a rejuvenation of the glories of classical art in line with a more humanistic and individualistic emerging contemporary era. Based in the flourishing new environment that empowered people to fully immerse themselves in studies of the humanities, funded by the generosity of the Medici family, Early Renaissance artists began to create notable work intensified by knowledge of architecture, philosophy, theology, mathematics, science, and design. The innovations that emerged in art during this period would go on to cause reverberations, which continue to influence creative and cultural arenas today. From 8 August to 31 October
