Renaissance Forever - The Technique of Renewal. Exhibition in Budapest

18/09/2008. - 21/01/2009.
Museum of Transportation

How did the Renaissance man seize the land and the waters by the help of contemporary science and how did he proceed through ages and discoveries to seize the skies and the depths?

How did distances decrease, how did the time become more and more significant, and how did humane man turn into the literate “homo technicus” by a growing number of inventions and innovations?

The organizers made a selection from the material of the past six hundred years on a subjective basis: rarities of the history of technology are next to epoch-making inventions indicating the multiplicity and creative power of renaissance creators and their successors.

Some of the objects exhibited in the Museum of Transportation can be tried out and operated in proportionate models. It is important for the museum to offer a chance for the younger generations to gather experiences about what they see.
