The Universidad Nacional presents La naturaleza de las cosas: Humboldt, idas y venidas, which traces the lasting impact that the German explorer, Alexander Von Humboldt, has had on present-day Latin American visual arts.
On show until July 6, this exhibition is centred around 17 contemporary Latin American artists, whose works draw connections with those of Humboldt and other 19th century explorers.
In collaboration with the Goethe-Institut, the Universidad Nacional commemorates 250 years since the birth of Humboldt, who was a geographer, scientist, naturalist, and the first person to describe human–induced climate change.
