===Impressum | ==Synopsis== | ||
Diatoms are unicellular algae which feature stunningly shaped exosceletons made of silica. “Diatoms – Forming Sense” is a survey on the constructive understanding of diatoms’ morphology in biology, architecture, craft, art, design and engineering. | |||
Rather than being a spectacular bionics showcase, the exhibition aimes at questioning the interrelation of beauty and function and its relevance for both scientific research as well as for artistic practice. | |||
“Diatoms – Forming Sense” is composed of | |||
* eight showcases containing eleven exhibition chapters, | |||
* four workplace installations each with video interviews and a small | |||
reference library and other interactive elements | |||
* an interactive installation | |||
Exhibits include | |||
* original taxonomic drawings and plates by the founder of microbiology, | |||
C.G. Ehrenberg | |||
* original drawings and sketches by German architect Frei Otto | |||
* 19th diatom preparations and exhibition slides | |||
* Scientific and modernist art microphotographs | |||
* Architectural models and form finding studies | |||
* Bionic prototypes and lifestyle products | |||
* Generative video artwork | |||
