On November 11, 2024 at 18:00 c.t. the second session of the lecture series “Hands-on. Research Perspectives on Collections”, organized by the Coordination Office for Scientific Collections in Germany, will be held:
Die anatomischen Präparate und Modelle der HfBK Dresden. Zur De- und Reaktivierung einer Lehrsammlung
Prof. Ivo Mohrmann (HFBK Dresden) & Jakob Fuchs (Deutsches Hygienemuseum Dresden)
The Anatomical Collection of the Dresden University of Fine Arts (HfBK) is one of the oldest and best-preserved collections of artists’ anatomy in Europe. The lecture describes its eventful history from its foundation to the present day. Thanks to a project funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), the university has been able to hold courses and public tours in the rooms of the collection again since 2020 and the almost 700 specimens and models are available for lending again.
The lecture will be held in German.
Participation is possible without pre-registration and is free for all interested parties!
