Weekly Update – Beautiful with fur or feathers

This week’s Weekly has my review of Beautiful Creatures at the Academy of Natural Sciences. Bennie, a Moluccan cockatoo, looks like he’s about to deliver the punchline of a salty joke. A red fox evokes Joan Rivers on the red carpet, her mouth open and big, dark eyes looking straight at you, an aging raconteur. And a barn owl is a diva on the runway, wings up and strutting. These gorgeous animals, captured in dramatic black-and-white photos by University of the Arts students, exude star power at the Academy of Natural Sciences’ new Art of Science gallery.
