Wild Diversity in the Garden: An Art Experience of Nature at the Botanical Garden Erlangen
The exhibition Wild Diversity in the Garden opens the view to those living beings that truly make gardens come alive. At the Botanical Garden of FAU, an exhibition unfolds in the open air and at the entrance to the greenhouses, making ecological connections visible and allowing biodiversity to be understood as an aesthetic experience.
A Garden Full of Hidden Worlds
Fungi, mosses, microorganisms, insects, birds, mammals, amphibians, and reptiles: The exhibit brings into focus groups of organisms that are often overlooked in everyday life. Fifteen large thematic panels explain habitats, symbioses, and ecological relationships. Thus, a contemplation of nature emerges, where the individual exhibit does not take center stage, but rather the web of life itself.
Knowledge that Changes Perspective
The exhibition connects science communication, museum pedagogy, and cultural education. The content focuses on fungi as key organisms, lichens and mosses, wild bees, butterflies, and aquatic habitats. Themes like neobiota, plants as habitats, and the connection between flowers and pollinators are also vividly conveyed. Visitors receive concrete impulses on how to promote biodiversity in their own garden or on the balcony.
A Place of Learning with Authority and Experience
The Botanical Garden Erlangen sees itself as an extracurricular learning location that connects research, teaching, education, and recreation. The exhibition is linked to the BioBlitz 2025, where 4717 species were documented in 52062 observations across more than 30 botanical gardens. This scientific basis lends credibility and depth to the presentation, making it a place where nature experiences and expertise come together.
What Visitors Can Expect
Those who walk through the exhibition experience a garden not just as a green backdrop, but as a vibrant ecosystem full of relationships, surprises, and quiet beauty. The art experience lies here in precise observation, in the spatial effect of the open air, and in the realization of how closely everything is interconnected. A visit is worthwhile for everyone who wants to see nature anew and experience biodiversity with all senses.
Conclusion
Wild Diversity in the Garden is an exhibition for anyone who appreciates botanical diversity, ecological education, and inspiring nature observation. A visit to the Botanical Garden Erlangen promises new perspectives on life in the garden and on humanity's responsibility for living habitats. A must-experience on-site.
