Hylozoic Veil
The Leonardo hosts the first U.S. installation of Philip Beesley's Hylozoic series. Not just an art installation, Hylozoic Veil is an immersive, evolving environment that responds to your presence.
Dynamic Performance of Nature
Injects static materials with live information creating a rippled picture of the world. By measuring temperature, wind, seismicity and more, the beautiful sine-curve wall displays a new kind of light show.
Think Art - Act Science
Witness the collision between art and science with these installations created by members of the Swiss artists-in-labs program.
Holotype
Like algae has adapted to every environment from hot springs to tundra, Holotype’s evolution will give form to a creature that resists classification — neither animal nor plant, destructive yet indispensable, thriving in every ecosystem.
There there
Now more than ever, place is an evolving idea. New technology peeks into others' lives and backyards, but even new technologies can’t fully capture a place. What do you know about "there?"
Lab @ Leo
This is your lab — a space for percolating, tinkering, designing, and making. Your brain is humming with thousands of new ideas itching to take shape.
This Light of Ours
Documenting the Civil Rights struggle in the American South. One of The Leo's most talked about exhibits, on display until June 24, 2012.
I.D.: What makes you, you?
Identity is a tapestry influenced by many different factors and components. No single aspect of our personality ever defines us fully — or does it?
Render
Render is your chance to develop any part of the animation spectrum. All you need to do is pull up a chair and start imagining.
Fantastic Fabrications
Find layers of playful invention — artifacts, images, and tools — made by inventors who are themselves inventions, telling a re-imagined story of real history. Then take your own turn at inventing with our Tinkering Studio.
Past Exhibits
The Leonardo is an evolving museum, which means we’re introducing – and saying farewell to – new exhibits all the time. Visit our archive to learn more about the exhibits that have had their time in The Leo sun.
