Mark Rodgers in front of Leonardo Da Vinci’s “Battle of Anghiari.”
Two Renaissance masters’ ideas
on display side by side
BV MARY HELEN KELLY
Until recently, the shopping cen
ter storefront housed an arts and crafts
shop. But this summer, it’s home to a
different sort of art and creation.
The “Discover DaVinci and Michel
angelo: Side by Side” exhibit currently
on display at the Perimeter Pointe shop
ping center in Dunwoody shows repro
ductions or models of works by the two
Renaissance artists side by side.
Mark Rodgers, the exhibit’s director,
says many people don’t realize Michel
angelo and Leonardo DaVinci lived at
about the same time. Rodgers said the
idea of displaying the works of the two
artists together was his idea. Fie said the
exhibit is trying to look at the Renais
sance from a “whole artist perspective.”
“We want everyone that comes to the
exhibit to not only reflect on what these
two men did in their lives, but we want
to inspire each individual to discov
er their own ‘inner DaVinci and inner
Michelangelo’ to bring their lives to the
next level,” Rodgers said. “That is truly
the message.”
Genius Productions, a nonprof
it company based in St. Louis, brought
the exhibit to Dunwoody, which is the
final stop on the exhibit’s journey across
North America. It has been displayed
over the past 4 1/2 years at locations in
Los Angeles, Denver, St. Louis and Bra
denton, Fla., Rodgers said.
At the end of October, the exhibit is
scheduled to return to its home at the
Museum of Leonardo DaVinci in Flor
ence, Italy, he said.
Included in the exhibit are licensed
reproductions of the artists’ works and
models of machines based on drawings.
At the exhibit, visitors will see a casting
of Michelangelo’s Pieta as well as one of
the head of the statue of David.
Visitors also will find over 60 hand-

Highway, Suite 150
The exhibit continues through
October. It is open from
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays
through Fridays; 10 a.m.
to 9 p.m. Saturdays; and
noon to 5 p.m. Sundays.
Adults, $18.95; seniors/
teachers, $16.95; children
aged 4 to 12, $14.95;
children aged 3 and younger,
free with paying adult.

crafted models of DaVinci’s inventions.
The models are interactive and visitors
are invited to use them and see how they
work.
There is also a special children’s area
where kids are invited to rebuild a mod
el of DaVinci’s portable footbridge or
color paintings by Michelangelo.
The exhibit can be experienced
through a docent-guided tour or audio
tour available on smartphones. Both are
included in the price of admission. Vid
eos that elaborate on certain aspects of
the exhibit are also played throughout
the day.
Rodgers said that although the art
ists were born more than five centuries
ago, modern visitors could relate to their
work.
“After you study their story, every
thing they said and everything they did
relates to our lives today,” he said.
