Picturing the Past
On display through Jan 04, 2019 at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science
Picturing the Past will feature juried selections from dozens of works submitted by paleo-artists working across the globe. The subjects span the range of life on this planet, from trilobites to dinosaurs to sabretooth cats, in paintings and sculptures and digital models. The museum’s collection of paleoart will also be highlighted, with important examples of the genre from the opening of the museum in the mid-1980s.
