Tour a Polinator Garden at Museum für Naturkunde Berlin!

LAS Art Foundation planted the first international edition of Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg's 'Pollinator Pathmaker' in front of the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin. The artist’s living artwork for pollinating insects marks an urgent shift away from human-centred thinking. In the context of TNOC, LAS offers a guided tour of this sculpture made of plants.

Each sculpture in the 'Pollinator Pathmaker' series is designed using a custom-build algorithm, which computes garden schemes that support the maximum number of pollinator species possible. The LAS curators will present this impactful initiative in interspecies art that was created in responds to the alarming decline in pollinating insects, which are vital for many plants to reproduce and ecosystems to survive. The tour invites audiences to reflect on what art can be, who it is for, and on the urgency of moving beyond anthropocentric approaches and aesthetics in the face of the climate and biodiversity crises.
