The Museum of Water and Fountains is proud to announce its new
exhibition: "Water: demons and wonders" which will
be held from May 1 to December 30,
2012.
The exhibition explores three main themes:
1. natural disasters
Too much water leads
to disasters: tsunamis, hurricanes, floods,
tornadoes ... we are regularly reminded of
them. But the lack of water is an equal concern
because of the drought, famine and exile it causes. Focus on these
weather events that lead to the flow of water on the
planet.
2. The aspects of water
Around us, water can be found in all states: liquid,
solid or gas. Even if this matter seems trivial to us, it
can, under certain conditions, behave in very strange ways.
It then appears to us, showing This matter seems trivial but may,
in certain circumstances, behave very strangely. It then reveals
its very different facets, in the form of geysers, mammatus clouds
or even the "icy finger of death".
3. The colours of water
Water amazes us every day as it displays a wide
variety of colours. Alongside the classic shades of
blue, the water of some lakes may astonish
us with its shades of red, orange, green and
even black!
During its playful game with the sun, it can also reveal
a whole series of phenomena: from the more commonly
well-known rainbow to the less notorious white rainbow.
