Step Into Mona Lisa’s World
What if a painting could breathe? What if a smile could speak? Co-organised by Hong Kong Heritage Museum and French May Arts Festival, and
supported by the Title Sponsor, The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, The Hong Kong Jockey Club Series: Meet Mona Lisa &
Portraying the Renaissance
combines Meet Mona Lisa, an immersive digital journey created by the Musée du Louvre together with Grand Palais Immersif, and Portraying
the Renaissance,
a gallery of Renaissance artworks curated for Hong Kong by Musée national de la Renaissance, the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana, and the
GrandPalaisRMN.
In Meet Mona Lisa, the iconic painting comes to life through an emotionally charged and multi-sensory journey. The exhibition is
unfolded across six themed sessions, including panoramic projections blending portraits and landscapes, interactive multimedia displays
that reveal Leonardo’s science of painting, playful games and an immersive photo booth that invites audiences to Mona Lisa’s world. The
hybrid of ambient light, sound shower and artistic imagery transforms with each space, while the projections of Mona Lisa in the optical
theatre will guide audiences to uncover the story behind the mysterious smile that has captivated the world for centuries.
Portraying the Renaissance showcases some exceptional pieces of art that offer a glimpse into the period of creative explosion that
reshaped the art scenes of Europe. These remarkable artworks, brimming with artistic innovation, speak to us just as clearly today as they
did 500 years ago.
Starting from 1 May, come and rediscover the Mona Lisa and relive the Renaissance at the Hong Kong Heritage Museum!
