Birds in Art
October, 2010 through January 2, 2011

The annual autumn migration will be bringing birds from around the globe to the Wildling Art Museum. Sixty paintings, sculptures, and works on paper that depict birds in one context or another disprove the idea that "A bird is a bird is a bird is a bird." Sixty artists, representing the United States and ten other countries, will be showcasing their interpretation of this fascinating avian diversity.

This fall we are excited to be hosting a touring show put together by the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum. It will be a stunning show, celebrating Birds in Art through a variety of media (including several sculptures). It will be the largest exhibition we have displayed in our new facility to date and a not-to-be-missed opportunity to appreciate the beauty and artistry of our feathered friends.
