>DESIGN INTERSPECIES ART
>September 05, 2009 - February 06, 2010
>
>Intelligent Design: Interspecies Art is a group 
>exhibition of twenty international artists 
>exploring human interaction with animals through 
>a collection of provocative video installations, 
>photographs, paintings, and sculptures.
>
>Artists in the exhibition collaborate with 
>cockroaches, pigeons, dogs, cats, ants, bears, 
>baboons, rats, spiders, trout, and other 
>species, which may be domesticated, imaginary, 
>laboratory, modeled, or wild. Curious about the 
>animal's point of view, artists design their 
>projects as a form of conversation or inquiry 
>about the nonhuman world. Their artwork 
>challenges the anthropocentric perspective of 
>the world, placing human perception on par with 
>other animals. Inspired by Darwin, the 
>environmental movement, and species collapse, 
>Intelligent Design envisions a paradigm shift in 
>which human beings are no longer the center of the Universe.
>
>The exhibition will also stimulate discussions 
>about the differences and similarities of how 
>the arts and sciences approach the world, 
>animals as products, animal rights, 
>conservation, and speciesism, as a form of 
>prejudice against animals. Intelligent Design 
>will be the first exhibition in the U.S. to 
>explore interspecies art, coming on the heels of 
>several exhibitions and conferences in the UK 
>this year that explored the topic in light of 
>this year's 200-year celebration of Charles Darwin's birth.
>
>Organized by UCR Sweeney Art Gallery, and 
>curated by gallery director, Tyler Stallings, 
>and artist/independent curator, Rachel Mayeri.
