MICROCOSMOGRAPHIA

American artist Mark Dion poses fascinating questions about the way we view nature and the scientific methods used to represent the natural world. The galleries will be transformed into an extraordinary cabinet of curiosities including a large-scale three dimensional tableau of a beached aquatic animal, a decorative tank of live piranhas and a disarmingly convincing giant mole. Microcosmographia is a major exhibition by one of the most influential artists working today.

Microcosmographia is a South London Gallery touring exhibition supported by Bloomberg, the Gulbenkian Foundation, the Henry Moore Foundation and Arts Council England.
