Exhibition: Evolutionary Biology "Appealing to the Populous"
This large-scale, art/science exhibition presents scientific ideas within fine art as a petition for species preservation. Featuring a wide-range of multimedia artworks providing numerous pathways for understanding, “Appealing to the Populous” also functions as an appeal for greater interaction between artists and scientific communities.
Featured artists span the globe from Japan reaching westward to New Zealand. Artworks ranging from robotics to indigenous sand-painting are displayed in 3d installations, 2d galleries, and video screenings.
Artist and curator mp Warming designed this exhibition for the beautiful Thaersaal, the great hall of Humboldt-Universität Berlin's Faculty of Life Sciences main building.
The exhibition includes Warming's artworks with discoveries on Hymenoptera by Dr Michael Ohl and Paleontology by Dr Dieter Korn. Both are scientists at the faculty at Humboldt Universität Berlin and curators at the Museum for Natural History Berlin (Museum für Naturkunde Berlin). Science Advisor Lukas Kirschey manages the Entomology Collection of the museum. All three scientists will speak as part of this compelling program.
