Climate, ecology and sustainability are highly topical issues that challenge humanity. In the search for sustainable solutions, it is worth taking a look into the past, into the history of the relationship between man and nature. This changed fundamentally when humans began to settle down in the late Stone Age. And this is where the "Hello Nature" exhibition comes in: it takes an ecological look at European cultural history and brings past and present into a dialog.
The chronological arc from the Stone Age to the present day shows how humans have used, influenced and changed nature. The exhibition also illustrates the limits that nature has placed on mankind through catastrophes, plagues and epidemics.
Today's urgent questions and insights have been with us for centuries. We also share many of the fears and anxieties of earlier generations. However, against the background of our current knowledge horizon, the current need for action becomes even more urgent.
The exhibition asks for new world views that promote an appreciative, sustainable coexistence of people and nature. What approaches do the experiences of previous generations offer? What orientation does the cultural-historical perspective give us on the way to a challenging future?
