[Figure 1.A.] the Scientific Art Exhibition

With its new exhibition, Figure 1.A. promises to make you discover science through the shear beauty of it. A selection of artistic pictures coming from labs all around the world will shine  a new light on the mundane reality surrounding you. From cells composing the mosaic of life to far away nebulae, Figure 1.A. takes you on a journey blurring the frontier between art and science.

For the whole duration of the exhibition, photography and microscopy workshops will allow you to explore your creativity. There will also be talks by scientists, exploring how curiosity and emotions help in the pursuit of knowledge.

At the end of the day, you will be amazed by the beautiful complexity of the world we live in and eager to learn more about it.
