ExhibitionJan 23, 2021-Jan 28, 2021
From Saturday 23 January a photo exhibition showing the fatal consequences of the nuclear bomb over Hiroshima will be on display outside the Nobel Peace Center.
The photos of the bombs that fell over Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 are uncomfortable, but necessary reminders that any use of nuclear weapons will have enormous humanitarian consequences.
From 22 January, nuclear weapons are banned under international law. It is illegal for the signature countries to develop, test, stockpile, sell or use nuclear weapons. 70 per cent of the UN member states support the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, but none of the nuclear powers, nor the NATO member Norway, have ratified it.. As long as some countries still are in possession of nuclear weapons they may be used – with catastrophic consequences. And the message from the survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki is unanimous: Nuclear weapons must be abolished.
The exhibition is shown in cooperation with ICAN Norway and Nei til Atomvåpen. It is made by Tundra*, Marin Gautron and Marcus Martinuzzi and shown outside the Nobel Peace Center from 23 January at 12.00 until 28 January. It is previously shown at Youngstorget in Oslo.
Admission is free.
Due to the Covid-19 restrictions, we kindly ask our visitors to wear a mask inside the exhibition, keep a minimum of 1 meter distance to others and that only 2 people may stay inside the exhibition space at a time.
