Animal Ark

Back

Animals take over the walls of the Art Gallery of WA when AGWA’s latest exhibition, Animal Ark, opens on 7 June. Drawn from the State Art Collection, this free exhibition explores how generations of artists have incorporated the animal motif in their work and invites people to consider how animals are integral to our lives. Created for a family audience, over 100 works explore the mythology, symbolism and representation of animals through painting, sculpture, decorative art, video and works on paper by historical, Indigenous and contemporary artists.
