Astronomy manuscripts penned by genius Leonardo da Vinci are on display in Japan for the first time ever. A new interactive installation by teamLab is also on display. Our universe is of perennial interest, appearing in art all around the world as an object of worship and study over the centuries, and spawning countless stories. “The Universe and Art,” in just one exhibition, will offer a diverse selection of around 200 items from across the globe and down the centuries, in multiple genres, from meteorites and fossils to historic astronomical material by Da Vinci and Galileo; mandalas; Taketori Monogatari (The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter) which we may call Japan's oldest sci-fi novel; installations by contemporary artists, and the latest from the frontline of space development. Join us on a journey exploring where we came from, and where we are going, as Roppongi turns into a portal to the cosmos.
