Naturecultures Chapter 3: Radical Symbiosis: The Social Life of Microbes
The exhibition RADICAL SYMBIOSIS: THE SOCIAL LIFE OF MICROBES takes place as part of the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Year 2023. This Delft researcher, city official and cloth merchant lived from 1632 to 1723 and is regarded as a pioneer in the study of microbial life and microscopic structures and processes. Since Antoni van Leeuwenhoek鈥檚 first sight of microbial life and his passing three hundred years ago, we have not stopped contemplating the wonders that appear under a microscope. Ever since science and art have developed further and deepened our understanding of microscopic life. After the years of pandemic and the trends of sourdough bread and home-brewing, it is time to look at the imaginaries that inform our relationship to the microbial world.
