How exactly does the “superorganism” bee colony work? How the complex interaction of bees and flowers? The exhibition shows how important the pollination work of bees is for our everyday lives and the economy, and addresses issues surrounding nesting sites, biodiversity, threats to and protection of wild and honey bees. Selected historical objects lead back to antiquity and document how closely the bee is linked to the cultural history of mankind. Preparations, models, animated films and videos; but also sound installations, scent essences and insights into living bee colonies make the exhibition a sensual experience.
