Temporary Exhibitions
Carnivores of the World
Friday 23 March – Thursday 5 April 2012
An exhibition of beautiful, detailed paintings depicting all the World’s carnivores by top wildlife artist Priscilla Barrett will be on display at the University Museum of Zoology, Cambridge from Friday March 23 until Thursday April 5.
Ranging from the largest terrestrial carnivore, the Polar Bear, to the tiny Least Weasel that can squeeze through a wedding ring, the true carnivores – order Carnivora – include some of the world’s most charismatic, admired, feared and spectacular creatures. This exhibition features the original paintings produced for the recently published Field Guide to the Carnivores of the World (Luke Hunter and Priscilla Barrett, New Holland Publishers, 2011).
In addition the exhibition will also include several more carnivore paintings by the artist, as well as limited edition prints and cards of her work.
