When sci­ence tou­ch­es the he­art — in­sights in­to the spe­cial ex­hi­bi­ti­on “Love”

Lie­be — Wis­sen­schaft trifft Herz­klop­fen

(Name of the exhibition in the original language)

At Uni­ver­sum Bre­men, vi­si­tors are curr­ent­ly en­coun­tering a very spe­cial to­pic: the ex­hi­bi­ti­on “Love — Sci­ence Meets He­art­beat” in­vi­tes you to get to the bot­tom of what is pro­ba­b­ly the most beau­tiful fee­ling in the world. He­re, love is not just view­ed as a ro­man­tic con­s­truct, but as a mul­ti-face­ted phe­no­me­non wi­th ma­ny di­men­si­ons: from the pa­rent-child re­la­ti­onship to hor­mo­n­al pro­ces­ses in the brain and fun­ny sto­ries from the ani­mal world. The ex­hi­bi­ti­on sheds light on how love tas­tes, smells and feels, how hor­mo­nes such as oxy­to­cin, do­pa­mi­ne and ad­re­na­line work and why this fee­ling so­me­ti­mes calms and at other times ex­ci­tes. Se­ven the­med are­as wi­th in­ter­ac­ti­ve sta­ti­ons, di­gi­tal ex­hi­bits and crea­ti­ve hands-on ac­ti­vi­ties — such as de­sig­ning a love cal­li­gram — of­fer im­pres­si­ve and sur­pri­sing ap­proa­ches to big and small ques­ti­ons about the phe­no­me­non of love.

Con­cei­ved by the Pa­ri­si­an mu­se­um “Pa­lais de la Dé­cou­ver­te” and fur­ther de­ve­lo­ped at Uni­ver­sum Bre­men, the ex­hi­bi­ti­on ap­peals to vi­si­tors from the age of ten and in­vi­tes them to mar­vel, smi­le and try things out crea­tively. Tho­se who want to del­ve deeper can al­so ta­ke ad­van­ta­ge of spe­cial of­fers for groups and school clas­ses or book a lo­vin­g­ly put tog­e­ther short trip packa­ge that com­bi­nes sci­ence, cu­lina­ry de­lights and the spe­cial charm of Bre­men. The “Love” ex­hi­bi­ti­on is a place whe­re he­art and mind, cu­rio­si­ty and emo­ti­on co­me tog­e­ther in an in­spi­ring way.
