LEONARDO LIVE
An exclusive cinematic event
Captured live in HD from the National Gallery, London
Only in cinemas Saturday 18 & Sunday 19 February, 2012

Experience the U.K. National Gallery's sold-out, once-in-a-lifetime exhibition 'Leonardo da Vinci: Painter at the Court of Milan' captured live in high definition only at your local cinema in limited screenings on Saturday 18 & Sunday 19 February, 2012.

"The show is dazzling, mysterious and disturbing. That there are any paintings to show at all is something of a miracle" says the Guardian in its review of the gallery presentation.
"a breathtaking and truly remarkable exhibition", "the greatest exhibition of the century" raves the Telegraph.

Crowds in the U.K. have been queuing every day from dawn to snatch the few remaining tickets to the gallery.

In a first for movie audiences, the big-screen presentation of 'Leonardo Live' gives art lovers the world over the opportunity to share in the excitement of viewing the unprecedented and historic exhibition, in the comfort of their local cinema. The exhibition brings together the largest ever number of da Vinci's paintings, including a new, never-before-seen Leonardo painting.  The program was captured on the eve of the exhibition opening in November 2011 -- the cinema screenings in February will feature extra content.

'Leonardo Live' is presented by art historian Tim Marlow and Mariella Frostrup, who will explore the exhibition and feature detailed examinations of the paintings and interviews with special guests and experts. See the paintings revealed in astonishing detail through close-up footage on the big screen.

Presented by New York-based distributors BY Experience and PhilGrabskyFilms.com, and in Australia by local distributor Sharmill Films.

Tickets Adults $20 / Conc & Members $18 / Under 16 $11.50
