Opening Exhibition Apocalypse
The exhibition’s theme may seem far-fetched for a natural history museum. More than a natural phenomena, the idea of Apocalypse is a cultural concept. However, environmental damage has become a real threat today. But doesn’t show history as well that natural and man-made disasters have always fuelled innovation? Scientific and cultural perspectives are interweaved in the exhibition.
"Apocalypse. End Without End" is shown from November 10, 2017 (planned running time five years).
