Description

The BODY WORLDS exhibitions have been hailed by many as the most educational exhibitions ever created to improve the public’s awareness, knowledge, and appreciation of the human body. Thanks to a process developed by Dr. Gunther von Hagens called “plastination,” these exhibitions feature dynamic, whole-body plastinates that are unparalleled for their aesthetic and informative value. Visitor studies have shown that people who see BODY WORLDS exhibitions have made lifestyle changes in diet, alcohol, smoking, and exercise habits to improve their health. BODY WORLDS & The Brain–Our Three Pound Gem focuses on the brain.

$7-13
