Kevin H. Jones: Protecting Things That Are Doubted

Kevin H. Jones is included in the exhibition Appealing to the Populous at Humboldt Universität in Berlin, Germany. The exhibition opened Nov 1st and coincides with Berlin Science Week .  Appealing to the Populous brings together over twenty international artists exploring various issues related to evolutionary biology.

Kevin’s work "Protecting Things That Are Doubted" includes three sensors that monitor and guard a copy of Charles Darwin’s, On the Origin of Species. Such care to monitor and preserve what is considered one of the most important scientific books ever published must be taken, especially in a divided world of evolutionary doubt, ignorance, and controversy. Exhibition visitors will observe real time measurements of the forces exerted within the book’s environment.
