Leonardo Da Vinci si sansa de a-i vedea inventiile

Ieri am trecut prin AFI Cotroceni si m-a surprins una dintre cele mai interesante expozitii pe care le-am vazut in ultima vreme: 44 de reproduceri dupa unele dintre cele mai cunoscute schite ale lui Leonardo da Vinci. Sigur, toata lumea stie de frumoasa Mona Lisa care locuieste acum la Luvru, insa genialitatea lui Da Vinci nu se rezuma la picturile sale, ci si la inventiile lui.

EN: Yesterday I stopped by AFI Cotroceni and I was surprised to see one of the most interesting exhibitions I have seen lately: 44 reproductions of some of the most known sketches of Leonardo da Vinci. Of course, everyone knows about the beautiful Mona Lisa who lives at the Louvre now, but Da Vinci’s genius doesn’t mean just his paintings, but also his inventions.

O multime dintre ideile Lui Leonardo da Vinci, unele materializate in schite, altele chiar in constructii reale, au pus bazele unor lucruri pe care noi acum le luam “de bune”. Cum ar fi de exemplu bicicleta, al carei stramos indepartat se regaseste chiar intr-una dintre schitele lui Da Vinci. Schita a fost gasita din intamplare in anii ’70 de catre cei care erau insarcinati sa restaureze Codex Atlanticus – compendiul de lucrari (scrieri si desene) ale lui Da Vinci, pe baza caruia sunt reconstruite piesele din expozitia de la AFI. Intr-adevar, bicicleta lui Da Vinci nu are un ghidon care sa poata sa fie intors si este din toate punctele de vedere rudimentara, insa este impresionant sa vezi inceputurile unuia dintre obiectele cele mai uzitate in ziua de astazi.

Si, daca tot vorbim de obiecte folosite foarte des in ziua de azi, ce poate fi mai reprezentativ decat camera si aparatul foto?! Camera obscura este un fenomen optic natural care a fost observat de Leonardo da Vinci, iar principiile sale de operare au pus bazele aparatului de fotografiat sute de ani mai tarziu. Daca aveti o dupa-amaiza insorita libera si un apartament in care bate lumina direct, puteti incerca sa faceti chiar voi o camera obscura, o sa va distrati tare mult cu cei mici cand o sa vada oamenii de pe strada reflectati pe un perete al casei cu o claritate uimitoare! Ce este insa impresionant la Da Vinci este faptul ca ideile sale erau atat de avansate, incat tehnologia care sa le puna in practica avea sa se inventeze sute de ani mai tarziu. Ma refer la aparatul foto, la bicicleta dar si la parasuta – care a fost folosita prima data 300 de ani mai tarziu, sau la pistol! Stiati ca Da Vinci a inventat sistemul de tragere la intervale rapide sub forma unui tun cu 3 tevi, considerat acum precursorul armelor de foc? Fascinant!

Si acestea sunt doar cateva dintre cele 44 de exponate senzationale ale lui Da Vinci care va asteapta sa le vedeti. Iar ca sa nu il vizitati singuri, m-am gandit ca am putea merge impreuna cu cei mici vineri dimineata, 27 iulie. Primii 25 de parinti care imi lasa un comentariu la acest articol, in care imi spun ca vor sa vada expozitia alaturi de copiii lor, sunt invitatii mei la un tur al expozitiei Leonardo da Vinci in AFI Cotroceni. Ce ziceti? Ne dam intalnire la Starbucks si de acolo plecam in explorare! O mare intalnire intre parinti si copii, intr-un cadru interesant: expozitia Lenoardo da Vinci.

Astept comentariile voastre si sper sa ne vedem ca sa discutam si noi, ca parintii, in timp ce copiii se distreaza intre ei si invata, deopotriva, lucruri interesante prin intermediul acestei expozitii. Pe curand!

In poze port: bluza vintage, fusta DKNY, ochelari Chloe, sandale Uterque.

EN: Many of Leonardo da Vinci’s ideas, some transformed into sketches, others into real constructions, are the base of things which we now take for granted. Like the bicycle for example, whose ancient forefather is in one of Da Vinci’s sketches. The sketch was found by accident in the ’70s by those who were designated to restore the Codex Atlanticus – Da Vinci’s works compendium (writings and drawings), which is the base for the pieces rebuilt in the exhibition from AFI. It’s true, Da Vinci’s bicycle doesn’t have a handle which can be turned and it is very rudimental, but it’s impressive to see the beginnings of one of the most used objects today.

And, since we’re talking about objects which we use very often nowadays, what can be more representative than the camera?! The dark room is a natural optical phenomenon observed by Leonardo da Vinci, and its working principles are the base for the photo camera hundreds of years later. If you have a free sunny afternoon and an apartment with direct sunlight, you can try and make a dark room yourselves, you’ll have lots of fun with the little ones when they’ll see people outside reflected on wall with an amazing clarity! What is really impressive about Da Vinci is the fact that his ideas were so advanced, that the technology to turn them into practice was only invented hundreds of years later. I mean the photo camera, the bicycle, but also the parachute- which has been used for the first time 300 years later, or the cannon! Did you know that Da Vinci invented the fast shooting system under the form of a gun with 3 pipes, considered now the forerunner of shotguns? Fascinating!

And these are just some of the 44 sensational exhibits of Da Vinci which are waiting for you to see them. And so you don’t visit them alone, I thought we should go together with the kids on Friday morning, 27th of July. The first 25 parents who leave a comment to this article, in which they tell me that they want to see the exhibition with the children, are my guests for a guided tour to Leonardo da Vinci’s exhibition in AFI Cotroceni. So what do you say? We’ll meet at Starbucks and from there we’ll start exploring! A big date with parents and children, in an interesting environment: the Lenoardo da Vinci exhibition.

I am waiting for your comments and I hope I’ll see you for a talk among adults, while the kids are having fun while also learing new things through this exhibition. See you soon!

In the pictures I am wearing: vintage blouse, DKNY skirt, Chloe sunglasses, Uterque sandals.
