How do we gain new knowledge about black holes in space or the aging of cells? What does the creative process of a writer look like? What can we do to counteract poverty and racism?

The exhibition From ideas to Nobel Prizes explored and celebrated the work, ideas, and dialogues that have led to scientific discoveries, new narratives, and breakthroughs for the greatest benefit to humankind.

Behind every prize-awarded achievement lies a long and demanding process—whether it involves space research, the art of the novel, or peace work. In the exhibition, Annesofie Becker and Morten Søndergaard, in collaboration with Birger Lipinski, gave form to the work of Nobel Prize laureates whose discoveries, ideas, and stories have changed how we see ourselves and the world.
