Cooperation between museums: results of an exhibition from the State Darwin Museum collection in China



The Darwin Museum's exhibition "A Big Portrait for a Small Company" was held at the Anji Branch of the Zhejiang Natural History Museum in China from November 28, 2023 to March 1, 2024.

The photo exhibition featured 60 works by photographer Pyotr Bogomazov, an employee of the Darwin Museum. Through in-depth research into the ecological habits and characteristics of insects, our colleagues from the Zhejiang Museum carefully thought through the content and form of the exhibition. Thus, the exhibition presented insects in various aspects: their diversity, lifestyle, relationship between insects and the environment, as well as the beauty of their appearance and even the depiction of insects in art.

Each themed area featured screens that allowed viewers to explore the world of insects through self-paced quizzes, videos and detailed illustrations.

The exhibition was a success: during this time it attracted approximately 150,000 visitors, including students, parents, teachers and other social groups. As part of it, our colleagues from China held a lecture with more than 200 participants and 82 events for parents and children. In their reviews, many visitors highly appreciated the content and form of the exhibition, noting its richness, diversity, novelty and uniqueness.

The "Big Portrait for a Small Company" exhibition not only enriched visitors' knowledge of insects, but also raised public awareness of environmental conservation.
