A walk through the Image Collection on the History of Astrology and Astronomy at the Planetarium with Gertrud Bing researcher Laura Tack and City Curator Joanna Warsza. (EN/DE)
The City Curator Hamburg presents the only exhibition ever personally made by Aby Warburg, Gertrud Bing and Fritz Saxl for the Planetarium Hamburg. Its contents were long considered lost and were rediscovered only in the late 1980s. Set out as an elliptical journey, the exhibition inquires into how the spiritual and the rational – both essential to human wellbeing – can be brought together and how humans have always looked into the stars to understand our life on Earth.
