The Giga Concept
The worldwide touring exhibition was organised by CONICET, the National Commitee for Scientific and Technical Research based in Buenos Aires. Seven well known Argentinian Natural History Museums are partners and contributors. The organisation of international cooperation and logistics was a massive challenge.
The exhibition itself is staged in cooperation with the “expona” exhibition network, the “cubo” Architectural Bureau in Venice and the Senckenberg Research Institute and Museum of Natural History. Paleontologist and dinosaur specialist Dr. Bernd Herkner, the head of the Senckenberg Museum department, has left a significant impression upon the exhibition through his scientific knowledge and expertise. The Argentinian government has hailed the venture as an extraordinary cultural project.
