The New World - Envisioning the Unknown
The Maastricht University Library in collaboration with the Maastricht Academy of Fine Arts and Design (MAFAD) proudly presents ‘The New World’. During this event we will present an interactive exhibition and the premiere of the travel documentary "Two Girls on Expedition in China. A journey two UM students made this summer, in the context of the 40th anniversary of Maastricht University.
Join us for an interactive exhibition where MAFAD students will be presenting their creative perceptions of unknown cultures. An exposition inspired by ‘Two Girls on Expedition in China’, a three week long voyage through China by two Maastricht University (UM) students. The two students set out to China with the aim of retracing the footsteps of 17th century Jesuits entailed in the works of Jesuit scholar Athanasius Kircher. Also, don’t miss out on the opportunity to see the premiere screening of the documentary of the voyage.
