Luft. Eine für alle | Sonderausstellung im Hygiene-Museum
In the organizer's words:
Need a breath of fresh air? The new special exhibition at the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum Dresden focuses on air - an elementary force that connects us all.
Numerous objects, films, works of art and interactive stations make it possible to experience the invisible element in all its different facets.
Air is omnipresent and yet cannot be grasped. It is always in motion and connects living beings - across ecosystems and geological eras. We humans also live in and through the air: we breathe it in and out around 20,000 times a day. And yet we behave as if we are not dependent on it. Through our actions, we change the air and thus increasingly also our living conditions.
The exhibition takes these changes as an opportunity to examine not only the physical properties of air but also its social impact - both locally and globally. It follows the movements of air through different ecosystems and geological eras and across national borders.
At the beginning of the exhibition tour, an air archive brings together personal air and perceptions of air. Fog catchers, which are used to filter water out of the air in places with low precipitation, capture air movements and air phenomena for visitors in the exhibition. A giant air conditioning pipe tells of the attempts to bring the air under control.
Numerous works of art and interactive stations are integrated into the exhibition, inviting visitors to discuss global environmental issues related to the state of the air. For example, an "emissions memory" can be used to uncover the often abstract dimensions of CO₂ emissions.
