Various natural history museums are hosting exhibitions that explore the intersection of art, science, and nature.

In France, the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle announced the ‘Artistes au Muséum’ exhibition to celebrate its 400th anniversary. Running from late September 2026 through March 2027, the event features over 300 works by more than 120 artists. The exhibition covers historical collaborations between naturalists and painters, the evolution of scientific imagery, and contemporary art focused on biodiversity preservation.

In Argentina, the Museo Provincial de Ciencias Naturales launched the second block of its ‘Cruces Creativos 2026’ series. This initiative includes eight simultaneous displays running until late November 2026, using diverse materials to examine themes such as biodiversity, natural processes, and environmental transformations.
