"Throughout the ages, Man has used images of the beast as a means
of understanding himself and even today in the 21st century,
animals continue to be an important vehicle for artists
of many different backgrounds.
Our exhibition is a powerful demonstration of this relationship and celebrates the diversity of expression alive in contemporary art."
