Dinosaurs Take Wing
An Exhibition on the Origin of Flight in Birds

Recently discovered fossils in China reveal how the anatomy necessary for flight in birds evolved in ground-dwelling dinosaurs. Among the new discoveries are four-winged, gliding raptors and tyrannosaurs with long display feathers that lived from 160 to 120 million years ago. Many fossils are in an exquisite state, preserving bone, feathers, skin, even color. Dinosaurs Take Wing will present feathery fossils that have never been exhibited in the U.S. and bring to life ancient creatures using colorful and dynamic models and artwork.

French Art of Pochoir
Prints & Designs from Art Nouveau to Art Deco

Pochoir is a labor-intensive process of making stencil prints that incorporated anywhere from 20 to 100 stencils. The colorful prints embodied the new and modern lifestyle in the early 20th century.

Pochoir was mostly popular in France where it was used to introduce trends in fashion, interior and theatre design and to demonstrate the role of color in modern life.

This exhibition will be comprised of 150 to 160 works from multiple lenders and feature the myriad effects of hue, tone and texture.
