The exhibition
12 of Leonardo’s sculptural drawings are presented at the home of sculpture at Leeds Art Gallery. Although none of Leonardo’s sculptures themselves survive, the drawings on display provide an unparalleled insight into his investigations and thinking as an artist, and his reach across parallel areas such as anatomy as well as proposed sculptures and his design for the monumental Sforza monument.
Also on display will be a collection of works by Glen Onwin, who makes sculpture from the very stuff of landscape. Onwin questions and transforms substance and space with a set of co-ordinates that includes scientific investigation and painting, much like Leonardo da Vinci.
