Art to Zoo: Exploring Animal Natures
September 28, 2014 – January 4, 2015
Photographers in Art to Zoo reveal the complex, thoughtful, and often elegant ways in which animals touch, see, and hear the world. Using non-invasive imaging techniques, scientists and animal behaviorists are finding irrefutable evidence that other species know vastly more than heretofore thought. The ancient Greeks had a class of animals that were semi-divine; the Egyptians worshipped animal deities; the pre-Columbians, a feathered serpent. Animals throughout human history have been revered and reviled, treasured and feared, yet little has been established as scientific fact until relatively recently. Throughout this macro to micro look at the animal world, the belief in overall human superiority is proved suspect, if not arrogant.
