The Great Animal Orchestra

The Great Animal Orchestra

The Great Animal Orchestra is inspired by the work of American musician and bioacoustician Bernie Krause. The exhibition, which brings together artists from all over the world, invites its audience to immerse themselves in an aesthetic meditation, both aural and visual, on an animal kingdom that is increasingly under threat. Put on headphones and dive in. Soothing!

  1. Too bad some of these projects that “raise awareness” are just marketing stunts used by huge corporations who don’t really care about being ethical, just about trying to “clean their brand”: The Great Animal Orchestra for example is created by Cartier, owned by Compagnie Financière Richemont SA, one of the biggest luxury goods holdings in the world, who couldn’t care less about the planet or anything else apart from profit (and nice branding).
