Eternity through the Stars
Jeronimo Voss’ Eternity Through the Stars (2012) is a two-part installation located at the planetarium as well as the Cabinet of Astronomy and Physics in the Orangerie. It is based on a selection of the cabinet’s collection of hand-painted projection slides visualizing astronomical revolutions, as well as a text by political revolutionary Louis Auguste Blanqui of 1872, from which the work also borrows its title. The work, Voss’ montage of image and text, is accessible several times a day throughout the duration of the exhibition. It is complemented by a light-installation and projections, located where the apparatuses of the Cabinet of Astronomy and Physics in the Orangerie are normally displayed.
