Company description
If you were ever in any doubt about just how amazing your body is then this is your last chance to visit BODY WORLDS & The Cycle of Life the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit (The Paddocks), Midrand, Gauteng.
The exhibition will run for 10 weeks from 12 September until 24 November with no possibility of further extension as it will be heading back to Europe.
BODY WORLDS & The Cycle of Life shows the human body's complexity, resilience and vulnerability via anatomical studies of the body in distress, disease and optimal health. Its particular focus is on the human life cycle - from prenatal development and infancy, to childhood and adolescence, youth, adulthood and old age. It shows the body living through time - at its most radiant and as it changes, grows, matures, peaks, and finally wanes.
Dr. Angelina Whalley, Director of the Institute for Plastination in Heidelberg, the creative and conceptual designer of the BODY WORLDS exhibitions, has travelled from Germany to launch the final leg of the South African run. Remarking on the Cycle of Life exhibition, she says, “People turning 50 today have more than half their adult lives still ahead of them so the question of how to live well, beyond the lifespan of previous generations, becomes more and more urgent.
“The body is so fragile and vulnerable, and yet so resilient and forgiving, ” she says. “It has a memory so that what we do to it matters, but it also has a dynamic consciousness so that giving up unhealthy lifestyles or taking up exercise, even small changes, can make a difference.”
