Flora and Fauna: 400 Years of Artists Inspired by Nature
June 11 - September 7, 2012
National Galley of Canada
380 Sussex Drive  

Drawn from the NGC collections, this exhibition looks at the ways in which nature has been an enduring subject for artists over the centuries. A source of curiosity, consolation and spiritual regeneration, nature’s complexity, its vulnerability and beauty have all been expressed in forms that are epic, analytical, and intimate. Each one of these approaches is represented in this installation of some 100 photographs, prints, drawings, paintings and installations of gardens, landscape and the small creatures that inhabit these spaces.
