Instruments of vision is an exhibition by the artist Armin Linke that will be held at the Igrexa da Universidade in Santiago de Compostela from 21 June to 28 August 2024. The exhibition is made up of 16 works that compile the observation of the scientific work that, for more than two decades, Armin Linke has carried out in different experimental facilities of particle physics.

 

In these images, Linke shows how international scientific collaboration has succeeded in generating highly complex instruments that make it possible to observe and understand the workings of the most fundamental elements of matter. The readings of these photographs are enriched and set in the context of a baroque church, inviting us to reflect on the connections between science, culture and society.

 

This exhibition commemorates the 25th anniversary of the Instituto Galego de Física de Altas Enerxías (IGFAE), a research centre present in some of the most important international scientific collaborations, such as the laboratories of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). For this exhibition, Armin Linke incorporates a series of works that reflect the work carried out by the IGFAE staff.
