The exhibition path that accompanies the visitor on a pleasant journey Through the centuries, from classical myth to contemporary science, from Plato to Stephen Hawking, following the red thread that connects science to philosophy. A journey through time where beauty and love return as an eternal invitation to reflect on the meaning of human life.

Exciting words, pictures, music, lights, sounds and installations: a theatrical performance as a complete work, designed and built in lightness and transparency through scenography, curated by the architect Silvio de Ponte, in harmony with the theatrical stage, and projected into the rooms that develops along the path of the exhibition.

There is also an educational area on the ground floor of Palazzo delle Albere An in-depth study with touch screens and video screens, available to school groups and visitors who wish to learn more about exhibition topics.

A journey in 8 chapters, there are actually eight “chapters” along which the course of the exhibition develops…or better, seven chapters, preceded by “Proemio”, helping visitors to immerse themselves in the theme of the exhibition.

We start from legend and from Ulysses, who set out among the first on a journey in search of knowledge. From myth we turn to Logos, which sees Plato and Aristotle as the heroes of the novel, masters of Greek philosophy. The journey continues through time to reach theology. Here the visitor receives a star-studded vault that lights up the Night of Faith.

Thus we come to the fifteenth century, with“humanity. In this class as in dance, science, philosophy, and poetry coincide with the steps of exchange. reach to Modern scienceGalileo Galilei, Descartes and Christina of Sweden and Isaac Newton entered the scene.

The exhibition Palazzo delle Albere ends with the last section dedicated to place and time. In this room, a vortex of galaxies envelops the visitor, while the words of Friedrich Nietzsche echo: “All things go back to eternity and we are with them, and we have already passed through eternal times and all things are with us.”
