Museu Nacional Receives Over 1,000 Fossils via Inclusartiz Institute

The Museu Nacional in Rio de Janeiro has acquired a donation of more than 1,000 fossils, facilitated by the Instituto Inclusartiz. This significant addition to the museum's collection follows the devastating 2018 fire that destroyed much of its holdings. The donation aims to support the institution's recovery and rebuilding efforts. A video is available showcasing the exhibition 'Irreparáveis Reparos – Kader Attia' at Sesc Pompeia, which explores themes of real and metaphorical fires, resonating with the museum's recent history. The exhibition features work by artist Kader Attia, addressing repair and trauma. The Museu Nacional, Brazil's oldest scientific institution, continues to restore its collections and facilities after the fire. The donation underscores ongoing cultural heritage preservation initiatives in Brazil. The event highlights collaboration between cultural institutions and philanthropic organizations.
