Private Tour with Marc Progin
"Sanctuary Frozen in Time"
When nothing but earth, heaven and nature are the companions of your days and night, then life is a wonderful journey onto the immensity of true freedom.
"Sanctuary Frozen in Time" is an exhibition that will take us in a photographic journey throughout Mongolia with Marc Progin leading you on a pilgrimage back to the origins of life, across a vast domain, where nature is the sole landlord, and men abide by it laws.
Seen through the eyes of the photographer Marc Progin, Mongolia is a haven of peace – an asylum for nature, wildlife and human beings living a nomadic life.
Join us on this special SAHK Private Tour led by Marc Progin himself and get dragged into his journey of "Sanctuary Frozen in Time"!
Kindly note that the number of participants is limited. Children aged 10 and above are welcome to attend this event; however, we recommend ensuring that the child is interested in the topic, as the tour will last for 60 minutes without a break.
