Wild Life brings together an outstanding collection of contemporary art depicting the natural world. Wildlife of the tropics predominates, but the indigenous peoples and landscapes of those regions are also represented. The exhibition will comprise around 35 works by Kim Donaldson, Alan Hunt, Brian Jarvi, Andy Ellis, Simon Gudgeon, Michael Jackson and Steve Winterburn.
In recent years, the popularity of natural art has increased, as issues of conservation of habitats, sustainable ways of controlling animal populations and preservation of species, all put at risk as a consequence of human activity, are brought to the forefront of today’s society. Powerfully echoing these themes, the artists featured in this exhibition lead us on our own journey of natural exploration around the globe.
