Prachtvolle Stoffe und Ikatwebereien aus Seide, Tee und „Wilde Äpfel“ fanden über die mythenumwobenen, oft romantisierten Handelsrouten der Steppen und Seidenstraßen ihren Weg nach Europa. Heute sind die Transport- und Handelsverbindungen unter anderen Vorzeichen von Interesse. Großangelegte Infrastrukturprojekte prägen die asiatischen Regionen der Steppen und Seidenstraßen und fördern nicht nur Staub, sondern auch Rohstoffe wie Kohle und Gold an die Oberfläche.
Ausstellungsstücke aus verschiedenen Museumssammlungen sind Zeugnisse der historischen Verbindungen und des Austauschs zwischen Ost und West und spiegeln die Interessen der Reisenden, die sie nach Europa gebracht haben. Eindrucksvolle Film und Fotoaufnahmen, Interviews und Reisenotizen aus aktueller Forschung setzen die historischen Betrachtungen und Themen in Beziehung zu heutigen Fragestellungen und Lebenswelten.

Die als begehbare imaginäre Karte gestaltete Ausstellung lädt Besucher*innen ein, Wege und Bewegungen zwischen Ost und West nachzuvollziehen und neue Verbindungen zwischen Themen und Orten herzustellen.

If your mark has a fine library, you might consider introducing it to silverfish. They love good books; in fact they will devour them. If you feel this nasty, you probably already know where to get silverfish and their eggs. This one bothers me, though, since I love good books. Maybe there's a better ....
