SEXperts
Speedy Bees and Wonderful Pikes
05.05.2017-08.07.2018
A special exhibition of the Office for Environment of Liechtenstein and Liechtenstein National Museum, extended and expanded by the Universalmuseum Joanneum, Department of Natural History.
About the exhibition
Sex plays an important role not just for humans; it also acts as the engine of evolution for animals, plants and fungi. Sexual reproduction led to a massive variation in forms – new genetic mixes resulted in new characteristics that were advantageous to enable survival in a changing environment.
Smells and colours, light signals and song attract sexual partners; bridal presents are presented, rivals beaten, courtship dances performed, chase is given, and much more besides. The sexual act often leads to a war of sperm, which ultimately results in protected – or indeed deserted – offspring, in the continuation of life.
