"Olly and Suzi Untamed: A Collabration with Photographer Greg Williams"
2001-07-20 until 2002-05-06
Natural History Museum
London, ,
UK
Collaborative British artists Olly and Suzi work with
photographer Greg Williams in remote polar, desert,
jungle and ocean environments, tracking, painting and
interacting with predators and their prey. Animals are
encouraged to interact physically with their paintings;
mauling, biting or scratching the works - leaving their
trace - evidence of a unique performance.
For The Natural History Museum, Olly and Suzi will present
an installation of photography, film, painting, and
drawing throughout the interior and exterior. A Gigantic
10 x 9 metre photographic work, White shark bite will
be displayed next to the Earth Galleries entrance, while
throughout the Museum there will be works showing
interactions with predators such as anacondas,
saltwater crocodiles, white sharks, tarantulas and wild
dogs.
During the exhibition they will be working with the
Museum's scientists, naturalists and research biologists
as artists-in-residence. The exhibition will also be
supported by an events programme for visitors,
including participatory workshops and talks by
scientists from the Museum and elsewhere, and by Olly
and Suzi themselves.
