The Power of Poison - The Exhibition
Poison's paradoxical roles in nature, human health, history, literature and myths will be on display when the Museum of Natural History's The Power of Poison: The Exhibition opens in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban for the first time.
Whether a defense against predators, a source of magical strength, a lethal weapon or lifesaving medical treatment, the story of poison is surprising at every turn. Visitors be able to find out which familiar tales of illness, enchantment, or death by poison - a feature of countless fairy tales, myths and legends from around the world - contain kernels of truth.
The Power of Poison: The Exhibition is presented by Expo RSA, who previously exhibited The Art of the Brick, Titanic and Dino's Alive, and the recent The Terracotta Army and the First Emperor of China: The Exhibition.
