MICHELANGELO’S SISTINE CHAPEL : THE EXHIBITION

A LIFE-SIZE, UP CLOSE, NEVER BEFORE SEEN PERSPECTIVE

Michelangelo’s masterpiece is resurrected in this truly unique exhibition that focuses on the ceiling frescoes of the Sistine Chapel. Brought to life using a special photographic technique that reproduces the look and feel of the original paintings, visitors are given a chance to engage with the artwork in ways that were never before possible. For the first time ever, visitors can explore the artwork at their own pace and admire the art from a distance that is physically impossible to achieve in the actual Sistine Chapel. This is an extraordinary opportunity to gain a new perspective on some of the most famous artwork in history. It also provides an incredible chance for inspiration as well as reflection on the purpose and meaning of the work.

With recent events such as the fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, we are reminded of how precious our most revered works of art truly are and how important it is to preserve and celebrate them. Guests who have already visited the Sistine Chapel will find a new way of observing the art. Visitors who have never seen the originals will be intrigued and inspired to visit the Sistine Chapel at some time in the future. We hereby invite you to plunge into the universe of Michelangelo.

“Perfect replicas in perfect harmony.”

Vienna Live Magazine

“One can look for the first time in depth at the magically painted faces in Michelangelo’s work. The joy of the new exhibition is to see those faces up close and intensely.”

The New Yorker

“It’s bright, bold, and overwhelming.”
