Flock: An Exhibition Inspired by the Schuylkill Center’s Bird Collection

Opening reception December 4, 2011, 2:00 – 4:00 pm

Take a closer look at birds with this unique exhibit inspired by the Schuylkill Center’s bird taxidermy collection.  Working with the Center’s bird specimens, photographer Lisa Haun has created lush, elegant portraits that defy their still subjects – they look alive and teeming with personality.  A collaborative sound installation by Jennie Thwing and Lorenzo Buffa invites gallery visitors to open up original birdhouses that come to life. Selections from the taxidermy collection will also be on display.
