Fri., 20 November until Sun., 27 June

With the special exhibition "Wildlife Photographer of the Year," the Naturhistorisches Museum Basel presents the 100 best nature photographs in the world—exclusively in Switzerland. This prestigious competition has been recognizing the world's most outstanding nature photographs every year since 1965. It is organized by the Natural History Museum, London. For this year’s 62nd edition, the jury selected the most fascinating images from more than 65,000 submissions that capture fascinating insights into the beauty and diversity of nature. These powerful images offer a magical insight into the hidden wonders of nature—into impressive animal behavior, extraordinary species, and breathtaking landscapes. The moving images illustrate in their own unique way why it is important to take responsibility for our planet.
There will be a vernissage of this exhibition on Thursday, November 19, at 18;30; admission to this public opening event is free.
