Thanks to financial support from “Friends of Mainz University Association” (“Freunde der Universität Mainz e.V.“), Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) was able to build a new exhibition space in the center of the university campus as a special showcase for the university’s science and art projects.
As the name suggests, the activities in the “Schule des Sehens” (“School of Seeing”) are primarily intended to encourage a critical examination of visual forms of communication and presentation.
Wide Variety
A diverse range of events regularly take place in the multifunctional pavilion complex: Special exhibitions, usually designed by students under the supervision of their teaching staff, theatre and music performances as well as lectures, scientific conferences, project work with students, or teacher training.
