About

Curator Greg Hilty; artists Marcus Coates, David Cunningham, Tania Kovats and Alison Turnbull; and zoologist Professor Aubrey Manning (University of Edinburgh) explore relationships between Galapagos and the work in the exhibition. *Title from Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life (1859) This Galapogos exhibition brings together work by a group of artists who have travelled to and spent time in the Galapagos archipelago through a residency programme initiated in 2007. Each artist was invited on the basis of their profound engagement with the opportunity, and each found the experience transformative for their artistic practice and their life.
