A sweeping group exhibition composed entirely of animal sculptures, curated by artist Eric Fischl with Powerhouse Arts’s Eric Shiner, The Ark brings together ninety sculptures and installations in myriad materials. The Ark refers directly to the myth of the Deluge, an event of epic scale that becomes a metaphor for the present moment, where environmental and social upheaval converge. Throughout the exhibition, animals function as both protagonists and interlocutors. Experienced in the round, in close proximity and at monumental scale, the sculptures foster a sense of connection and awe channeled through artists’ eyes. Rather than framing environmental themes through notions of crisis and urgency alone, the exhibition centers on relationships and intimate encounters—the menagerie assembled in The Ark bears witness to forces that threaten our existence while fostering the instinctive human tendency to care for vulnerable beings and acknowledge their unique contributions to our collective life on this planet.
