Finally went to catch it on the last day of exhibition. The crowd was crazy.. Everyone was as last minute as us, and hence it resulted in a crazy crowd and an impossible queue. And because there were so many people, it probably took twice the time it did for us to walk through everything, because we practically had to queue up to see each exhibit.
I think he's a pretty awesome man, to dabble with everything from the arts, sciences, anatomy, astronomy, warfare, yada yada.. The exhibition seemed endless with all his creations, ideas, paintings. I know none of us probably can appreciate La Joconde properly, but still it was fascinating to watch all the detailed explanations and the breakdown of each an every part of the painting. Imagine they had an analysis for the sleeve of Mona Lisa. SLEEVE. -.-!!
I think we took more than 3 hrs to walk through the whole thing, skipping the near long hour video because we were all soooo tired from walking through the hall.
1:1.618 was encountered in Da Vinci Code already, but it was still fascinating to look at how it exactly works. The only thing I'm wondering is, how on earth did he measure up to the exact 1.618 ratio..? *shrugs.
Anyways, I'm quite glad that I went to the exhibition in the end.
what you see and think may not turn out to be what is seen and believed. argh.
