Caffeine
belongs to our everyday life. It's found in food and drinks and it's
used in cosmetic and medical products. Caffeine is popular and
polarised. For some its pure pleasure, for others an addiction.
The exhibition leads us into the huge area of the powerful drug.
How does this substance move so effortless between addiction, pleasure
and medical remedies? The exhibition shows how the first caffeinated
products (coffee and tea) became so popular in the western world. It
gives an insight into the complex history of the caffeine research. It
highlights the actual phenomenal success stories of energy drinks and
