Water is everywhere – we drink it, bathe in it, and experience it as rain, ice or a river. The exhibition ‘On Water. WasserWissen in Berlin’ showcases current research projects by the Berlin University Alliance (BUA), a Berlin-based network of excellence. These are complemented by artistic works that explore the element and vividly convey its versatility.
