Wild Diversity in the Garden: An Artistic Experience of Living Nature
The exhibition Wild Diversity in the Garden at the Botanical Garden Erlangen opens the view to the invisible life between beds, paths, and greenhouses. Fungi, mosses, microorganisms, insects, and vertebrates show how rich a garden is as an ecosystem. The exhibition combines vivid nature education with aesthetic experience and invites a contemplation of nature itself.

The Garden as a Living Exhibition Space
In the open air and at the entrance to the greenhouses, an exhibition atmosphere unfolds that combines research and sensory perception. The 15 topic panels explain ecological relationships, from fungi as key organisms to wild bees, butterflies, and habitats by the water. Thus, biodiversity is not explained abstractly, but is made directly experienceable. ([botanischer-garten.fau.de](https://www.botanischer-garten.fau.de/events/ausstellung-wilde-vielfalt-im-garten/))
Knowledge that Continues to Impact Everyday Life
The exhibition provides concrete impulses for more species diversity in one's garden or on the balcony. Profiles of individual habitats, tips for promoting nature in urban spaces, and the reference to BioBlitz 2025 make the visit an educational offering with practical added value. The Botanical Garden understands itself as an out-of-school learning location that connects research, teaching, education, and recreation.

Curating Between Science and Wonder
The content structure of the exhibition ranges from the introductory panel Save Diversity to topics like lichens, mosses, bird life, mammals, amphibians, and reptiles. This curatorial breadth makes the charm of the exhibition: It translates ecological complexity into clear images, concise information, and accessible language. The result is an artistic experience of nature observation that teaches and touches at the same time.
