GREENSBORO – “A Critical Balance: the Endangered birds of Amboseli Park, Kenya, Africa” is an exhibition of art through September 21, at the gallery at the Highland Center for the Arts.
“A Critical Balance” explores a selection of birds found in Amboseli National Park and provides six featured artists an opportunity to share their observations and use their art to convey both the beauty of their chosen endangered species and the need to protect them. Artists included in the exhibit are Heidi Broner, Susan Bull Riley, Linda Mirabile, Adelaide Murphy Tyrol, Susan Parmenter and Gabriel Tempesta. Each artist has chosen one or more birds that reside in or are seasonal visitors to Amboseli. All species of birds showcased in the exhibit are listed on the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Red List as endangered or threatened.
The gallery is open Thursdays through Sundays, noon to 4 p.m.
