The Cabinet of Curiosities, also known as a Wunderkammer, is a historical concept that originated in the Renaissance and reached its peak of popularity in the 16th and 17th centuries. It was essentially a collection or display cabinet filled with a diverse array of rare and intriguing objects, encompassing natural specimens, artifacts, art, and oddities co-existing together as a microcosm of knowledge.

Immerse yourself in the diverse textures, colors, and forms found in the AGB’s collection and the natural world in a wonderous installation – transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary
