Der Hase ist des Jägers Tod — Kultur und Natur des südlichen Afrikas

In the organizer's words:

When the hare is supposed to bring the people the news of their immortality, he turns it into the opposite and thus causes their finiteness. Numerous communities in southern Africa still tell the tale of the hare and the moon today and it is representative of the changing relationship between humans and nature. The exhibition focuses precisely on this and provides insights into past and present stories of southern Africa. The presentation of the unique diversity of large mammals in particular has its place, as do the magnificent rock paintings from early history - and also a critical examination of the German colonial era. Relationships between humans and animals are presented here, from the Stone Age to the early modern period and its ethnological evidence through to modern photo and hunting safaris. The aim is to arouse curiosity and fascination and to strengthen the protection of biodiversity and the recognition of cultural diversity.
