Researchers swabbed a disputed da Vinci drawing—and may have recovered Leonardo’s DNA. Now, science is chasing the genetic link behind his vision, speed, and revolutionary genius.

The latest issue of Quaternary Australasia is fresh of the press and should have landed in members' inboxes. The QA Editors do a wonderful job, without fail. A highlight for me, as always, is the Quaternary Arts section - this issue features a brilliant poem by Colin Murray-Wallace, where he manages to rhyme 'hiatus' with 'frustrate us' - which is perfect on so many levels.

Gletscherwasser

Watercolor series created in collaboration with the Hamburg based artist Katrin Bethge. Bethge was commissioned by Güntzel to paint landscape formations inspired by the Arctic and Antarctic. The watercolors were made with melted snow from Antarctica as well as melted glacier ice, extracted from 2.2 km depth from the Hashtag#Greenland ice sheet. Both samples were provided by Alfred-Wegener-Institut, Helmholtz-Zentrum für Polar- und Meeresforschung.

[Swaantje Güntzel, Katrin Bethge, 2022, Gletscherwasser, ongoing series, watercolor, different sizes: (4 x) 44 x 55 cm, (3 x) 37 x 45 cm, (4 x) 22,5 x 28 cm]

Design isn’t just how things look — it’s how they work.

It’s the perfect balance of logic and creativity, precision and emotion.

If you feel the pull between science and art… maybe design is your true path.

Misinformation is spreading and trust in authorities deterorating. Science alone can’t stop it—but could art help?

In our latest blog post, Professor of Economics Peter van Bergeijk explores how artistic observation fosters curiosity, nuance, and trust in an age of uncertainty.

Breaking Bubbles: Art and Science in a Fractured World

In an age where trust in science, facts, and authority is rapidly eroding, art may offer a surprising way forward.

The exhibition "Infinity - Empitness - Liveliness" at Planetarium Hamburg can still be visited until May 31st! Where Art meets Science in Space.

What do our imagination of Outer Space have in common with our imagination of the Arctic? And why is it important to become aware of our cultures of perceptions for creating more just and sustainable futures?

The exhibition was realized by Die Junge Akademie (Anne Hemkendreis, Oliver Rymek, Timo de Wolff, Professor Michael Saliba) and hosted by Planetarium Hamburg.

Capturing Centina Alexa König-Weichhardt: not just the heartbeat of sage.blue, but the brilliant mind that bridges art and science. Her gaze, as analytical as it is imaginative, constantly pushes boundaries and redefines perspectives.
