The lecture is an accompanying program of the art exhibition Kurt Gebauer as you (probably) don't know him
and freely follows the lecture of anthropologists Marek Halbich and Lucie Remešová, Ayahuasca and the shamanism of the Peruvian Amazon, which was the accompanying program of the exhibition Otto Placht: Peru ... stories from the third shore.
