An truly explosive Sunday Arts Magazine, a real must; not to be missed episode.

“It’s been a lifelong ambition of mine to bring original Leonardo Da Vinci sketches and drawings(folios from Codex Altanticus from Biblioteca Ambrosiana, Milan, Italy) to Melbourne.” (Bruce Peterson LinkedIn, 10th March 2024.)

Find out where Leonardo Da Vinci was brought up. Find out about his education and how he was predominantly self taught.

Was Da Vinci a renowned incredible artist, or was he much more? This is revealed in this episode. “He(Da Vinci) developed a curiousity. He wanted to learn everything”. (Bruce Peterson on Sunday Arts Magazine 10th March 2024.) His lifelong ambition was always to learn. He wanted to prove things.
Find out how Leonardo managed financially. Further, find out why the Mona Lisa is the most incredible piece of art in the world today.

Learn about Leonardo’s Codex Atlanticus Pages: the collection of his writings, drawings and sketches. Why can this collection be on display for only ninety days? Further, find out why the Codex Atlanticus is only rarely ever loaned out, and to major institutions only.

For the first time in Australia, Leonardo Da Vinci’s The Codex Atlanticus Pages will go on display at The Lume Digital Art Gallery at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, commencing 16th March. Come and draw inspiration from a great figure in the past. Be entertained. See how some of the messages from Leonardo Da Vinci’s work are still relevant, and can be applied to life today.

“Art and culture is for all people, it’s for all people to understand”(Bruce Peterson, Sunday Arts Magazine, 10th March 2024.)
