Time Out says

The Lume is a cutting-edge digital gallery and immersive art space created by Melbourne's Grande Experiences permanently located within the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.

Within the Lume, visitors can experience art all around them. Instead of looking at paintings on walls or sculptures on plinths, art is projected onto the walls to make you feel like you've stepped inside the paintings themselves. 

There are also regular exhibition tours, perfomances and special events within the Lume's exhibitions. If you get hungry, dine under the projections at the Lume's in-house restaurant.

The Lume's latest experience is Leonardo da Vinci – 500 Years of GeniusThis dazzling exhibition features massive projections of da Vinci's art, advanced scans of the layers behind 'The Mona Lisa' and original 500-year-old pages from his Codex Atlanticus.
