Universe Pavilion: Sheltering in Space – A Guide also printed on paper

The catalogue of the first Universe Pavilion exhibition that took place in Venice in 2025 with the patronage of ESA, Regione Veneto and the Italian Space Agency, published as an eBook, has been printed on paper too. The Universe Pavilion is envisioned as a platform that fosters a continuous dialogue across cultures and disciplines connecting to space. The project has been initiated by Claudia Kessler and Janine Thüngen-Reichenbach.

The exhibition seeks to inspire new perspectives and foster collaborations that bridge science, art, and global issues by emphasizing the profound relevance of space exploration challenges to life on Earth. At the core of the first Universe Pavilion is “Sheltering in Space – A Guide”, an exhibition curated by Claudia Schnugg, open to the public from 10 May to 31 July 2025.

Cosmological Elements

 

This catalogue presents the exhibition “Cosmological Elements”, curated by Claudia Schnugg and Iris Long, initiated by Angel An. The exhibition discusses the idea of cosmological elements through several lenses: the lens of science that questions what are the elements that constitute objects in cosmos and the space in-between, elements that can also become central to study the universe and life on planet Earth. In that sense, a selection of cosmological elements also constitutes life on Earth as we humans know it. At the same time, we look at life on Earth and search for life in outer space based on several ideas that continuously built up throughout scientific and research endeavors of cultures throughout human history. Such culturally understood cosmological elements manifest in scientific studies, but also in human dreams and stories being told.
