  • A work by Leonardo da Vinci on display in this country is quite rare. An exhibition of Leonardo da Vinci's notes on paper is a must-see. I drove to Phoenix to see this manuscript called the Codex Leicester. Comprising 72 pages, the double-sided sheets of paper are filled with his writing and small drawings allowing the viewer to see how this genius thought through complex problems. This is the first exhibition at which I had to go through a metal detector and that's an indication of the importance and value of these documents (now owned by Bill Gates). I entered the darkened gallery to a display of upright vitrines in which each double-side page is suspended between glass. We are all familiar with da Vinci's artistic ability but it's riveting to see his small drawings that illustrate solutions to problems upon which he spent time. Like a diary of sorts, it's a revealing window into someone's thoughts. There is a cool interactive computer screen -- a la Microsoft -- where you can select an image of one of the pages and, as you move your finger across the screen, it translates the section you're viewing. It adds greatly to the exhibition experience. I last saw this manuscript in 1997 but this exhibition presents it all much more effectively. Go. Now.
