Selected for renowned international exhibitions
Two works by Mark Dedrie, ‘Sword-billed Hummingbird’ and ‘Grouse’, have spread their wings and will embark on a transatlantic journey in the autumn of 2019. Mark’s work has been included for the first time in the Birds in Art exhibition. He will also be participating in the ‘Art and the Animal’ museum show for the second time.
Birds in Art
Ninety-one
artists and 15 master artists are participating in Birds in Art. This annual
exhibition, which was first held in 1976, showcases the best contemporary
artistic interpretations of birds. The selected artists all show one work. Mark
will be exhibiting his ‘Sword-billed
Hummingbird’, an artwork with a strong composition. Just look at the line from
the bird’s beak in relation to the palm leaf on which it is standing.
The Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau, Wisconsin, which
hosts Birds in Art, is an iconic location. It is the most prominent bird museum
of the world, with a vast collection and continually changing temporary
exhibitions featuring paintings, sculptures and graphic work that celebrate
natural avian beauty. Many of the artists who were selected for Birds in Art
went on to have successful commercial careers in the United States.
Art and the Animal
The annual Art and the Animal museum
show, which will be hosted by the Briscoe Western Art Museum in San Antonio,
Texas this year, has included Mark in their selection for the second time. The
American Society of Animal Artists organises this prestigious annual juried
show. The exhibition only features the best animal art and it is a great honour
for artists to participate in this show. The organisers selected Mark’s bronze
of a Scottish ‘Grouse’.
