Topic Weekend: Connected Earth

Everything on earth is interconnected – this can be seen not only in social, political and economic networks, but above all in our complex and interconnected ecosystem, which has the ability to restore balance to itself again and again.

Admission: valid museum ticket
Language: German

The immersive Connected Earth exhibition uses works by renowned international artists and interactive stations to provide insights into the complex network that connects our planet. We invite you to immerse yourself in this exciting world and, with the help of art and technology, to feel our connection to nature and explore innovative and different ways in which we, as one of millions of different species on our planet, can live as part of this fascinating, living world.
