The second round of the international pilot project Art/Nature will open today with an acoustic parcours created by the Berlin artist duo Serotonin and series of large scale drawings and screen prints by the Peruvian artist Fernando Bryce. Both interventions focus on the political and cultural history of the Museum für Naturkunde and its collection around 1900. Launched jointly by the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin and the German Federal Cultural Foundation, the project explores interactions between contemporary art, museum practice, and natural history research. Art/Nature invites artists to create new art works in order to open fresh perspectives on natural history collections and research. Two more series of interventions will lead up to 2018.
