Event Image
University Gallery presents an exhibition of images by Denis Defibaugh, Professor Emeritus, College of Art and Design, School of Photography. Defibaugh’s “The Afterlife’s of Natural History” project focuses on critically endangered and vanished birds, mammals and extinct species that are housed in collections of museums, science centers, and labs.
An opening event is set for 4:30 – 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 13. "The Afterlifes of Natural History" runs through March 8.
Defibaugh trains his 4x5 view camera lens on these zoological specimens across the country, bringing them to a new, eerily beautiful afterlife, hoping to call attention to their plight and sound a warning about the ongoing demise of many species.
