The Denver Art Museum is hosting an exhibition on the use of architecture, art, and design to connect with the natural world. Titled Biophilia: Nature Reimagined, and on display throughout the summer of 2024, the exhibition will bring together more than 70 works, including architectural models, photographs, objects, fashion, digital installations, and immersive art experiences centered on the transformative power of nature.
The exhibition will be organized into three themes based on the aspects of nature that most impact human well-being: Natural Analogs: Form and Pattern; Natural Systems: Processes and Phenomena; and Topophilia: People and Place. While Natural Analogs will examine the simulation of naturally occurring shapes, sequences, and patterns, Natural Systems will explore nature’s processes and phenomena with a focus on seasonal and temporal changes. Finally, Topophilia will consider the emotional connection between people and their physical environment. Among the designers whose work will be featured throughout the exhibition are Iris van Herpen, Studio Gang, teamLab, Joris Laarman, and DRIFT.
“Biophilia explores the human need to connect with the natural world and its ability to improve our health, spark the imagination, and strengthen personal and community relationships,” said Christoph Heinrich, Frederick and Jan Mayer Director of the museum. “Engaging visitors of all ages, Biophilia invites us to reflect on our innate bonds with nature through inspired works of architecture, art, and design that evoke the structures and phenomena found in the natural world.”
The exhibition will be on view from May 5 through August 11 in the museum’s Anschutz and Martin & McCormick galleries on level 2 of the Hamilton Building.
