Deer, bison, and horses charge across a stone ceiling of the Lascaux cave in France. Ancient artists’ renderings engendered good luck for the hunt, or, perhaps, documented the last one. Humans have always used art to communicate the importance of animals, both friend and foe, as part of life. The photographs in “Fin, Wings and Other Such Things,” now on view at the National Heritage Museum August 12, 2007 through February 10, 2008, continue this practice.
The exhibition is culled from the Polaroid Collections, an archive of more than 16,000 images made by world-class, contemporary photographers. Using a variety of Polaroid instant films, these professionals have described our fellow creatures.
