Ulaanbaatar, October 30, 2025 /MONTSAME/. In commemoration of the 50^th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Mongolia and Germany, the “Earth of Healing” exhibition is being held across three venues.

The first exhibition was held at Kunsthalle Düsseldorf in Germany from June to September 2024. The second phase officially opened in Ulaanbaatar at HUE Art Gallery on October 29, where it will remain on display through the end of November 2025. The exhibition will then continue at the Chinggis Khaan National Museum in Ulaanbaatar beginning on December 4, 2025.

Curated by Dr. Gregor Jansen, director of Kunsthalle Düsseldorf, and Ms. Oyuntuya Oyunjargal, founder of Arts & Media Project Management & Consulting NGO and Cultural Envoy of Mongolia to Germany, the exhibition brings together artistic voices from Europe and Asia.

Visitors to the gallery can experience a diverse array of artistic expressions, including visual art, installation and set design, performance pieces, contemporary dance, high-frequency music, and vocal works. Attendees also have the opportunity to engage directly with artists and curators for more profound insights into the creative process.

For the second opening of the exhibition, Dr. Lodoiravsal Choimaa, Advisor to the President of Mongolia on Education, Science, and Technology Policy, noted the importance of the event. He stated, “This event is one of many cultural initiatives marking the 50^th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries. It is a joint project that was held in Germany last year and is now continuing in Mongolia, serving as a clear reflection of the deep cultural cooperation between our countries.”

Dr. Lodoiravsal emphasized that Mongolia and Germany have established a strategic partnership during the recent visit of German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier to Mongolia, making Germany the first European country to formalize such a partnership with Mongolia. He added, "Despite their geographical distance, shared values and strong relations in culture, education, and science closely connect the two countries."

Advisor Dr. Lodoiravsal underscored the long-standing educational ties between Mongolia and Germany, noting that they extend beyond the 50 years of de facto diplomatic relations. He announced that next year will mark the centenary of the first group of 35 Mongolian students who studied in Germany. Additionally, an exhibition honoring “Chinggis Khaan: How the Mongols Changed the World” will open in Berlin. The ongoing exhibition is a meaningful initiative to enhance cultural and environmental cooperation and to celebrate the enduring friendship between the two countries.”

Dr. Gregor Jansen, internationally acclaimed curator and initiator of the project, delivered opening remarks: “The second phase of our exhibition is now underway in Mongolia, with a focus on bridging Europe and Asia through artistic expression and environmental consciousness,” he said. “Climate change increasingly affects society, politics, and the arts in both Mongolia and Europe, so we aim to encourage collective reflection on how to safeguard the planet’s health.” German artists have drawn inspiration from Mongolia’s stunning landscapes, rich cultural traditions, and felt-making heritage.”
