Details
About the Experience:
the bomb evokes the danger and uncertainty inherent in the management of nuclear weapons. By reflecting on the technological fallibility of these machines, the installation serves as a powerful reminder of the nuclear threat, an urgent issue that has grown in importance but receives too little attention.
University Engagement:
In addition to the installation, each university visit will feature a series of events designed to engage students, faculty, and the public in a wide-ranging dialogue and debate about nuclear issues. These events will include panel discussions, Q&A sessions with the artists, and interactive workshops that aim to deepen understanding and inspire campus-wide conversations about how to prevent nuclear wars.
Admission:
Admission to the bomb is free of charge for all university students, faculty, and the general public.
