Cerebro(s) Exhibition in Zaragoza: Discover the Human Brain Through Art and Science

This exhibition explores how humans have studied and represented the brain through the decades, delving into its diverse activities such as abstract thought, language, consciousness, imagination, and dreams. It features over a hundred pieces, including historical and artistic objects, contemporary artworks, and videocreations.

The exhibition 'Cerebro(s)' offers a compelling union of culture, technology, and society dedicated to understanding the brain. It features over a hundred pieces, encompassing historical and artistic objects, contemporary artworks by artists like Andrew Carnie, Greg Dunn, Ivana Franke, Alex Guevara, Joan Fontcuberta, and Pilar Rosado, as well as scientific research results and technological innovations. The exhibition is structured into three main blocks: 'Materia,' 'Mente,' and 'Otras mentes.' 'Materia' focuses on the brain as physical matter and the historical development of brain research, posing questions about the origin of the human mind and the necessity of a body for a mind. 'Mente' delves into the intangible aspects of the brain, such as consciousness, creativity, language, and memory, exploring themes like measuring consciousness and the nature of dreams and reality, featuring installations and interactive experiments. 'Otras mentes' expands the scope to include non-human intelligences, such as artificial intelligence, animal brains, and collective animal intelligence, questioning the exclusivity of cognitive faculties to humans and exploring the complexities of other minds.

The exhibition is located at the Centro de Historias de Zaragoza. Several types of guided tours, all free of charge, will be developed throughout the exhibition, including those for the general public, secondary education groups, and special education. Specific ticketing or admission details beyond the free guided tours are not provided on this page.
