Walter Robinson
Late Harvest, the feature exhibition of the 2014 fall season, juxtaposed contemporary art made with taxidermy with historically significant wildlife paintings, resulting in intriguing parallels and startling aesthetic contrasts. The exhibition simultaneously confirmed—through historically-significant wildlife paintings—and subverted—through contemporary art and photography—viewers’ preconceptions of the place of animals in culture. This fully illustrated catalogue gives a thorough, in-depth discussion of the exhibition and also serves as the field guide for the 2014 Art + Environment Conference. Stunning photographs, exquisite design, and introspective scholarship defines this book.
