G*d. Reflections between heaven and earth

 
G*d: for some He is the origin of all being, for others a grand illusion. God brings people together and also divides them. But who or what is God anyway? The exhibition G*d. Reflections between Heaven and Earth approaches the phenomenon in seven questions that often have more than just a religious answer.
