Curated by art and environment organisation Invisible Dust, this major new exhibition will run from May 28 until August 22 in newly refurbished contemporary galleries at the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum in Coventry. Alice Sharp, artistic director at Invisible Dust, said: “I am thrilled UnNatural History will be one of the first exhibitions for Coventry UK City of Culture 2021. The artists consider the past and future of the deeply felt relationship between art and science of the great collections of natural history. This relationship is sometimes speculative, sometimes informative."
