EXHIBITION – FROM GESTURE TO FLAME
From May 18th to September 22nd, 2024, every day.
The history of fire making is as old as human history. Through a retrospective of techniques, we will examine traditional fire-starting techniques as well as more modern and original ones.
Fire is the result of a chemical reaction, but it has always fascinated mankind. The earliest actual traces of hearths date back to 400,000 years ago and testify to humans’ domestic use of fire. Today, this vital element is taken for granted. However, it marks a turning point in human evolution.
