TAXIDERMY
Alexis Turner
Thames & Hudson, 2013
'From style wilderness to height of cool, taxidermy has staged an extraordinary comeback. No longer confined to stately homes, stuffed animals are appearing everywhere from modern apartments to luxury department stores. High-profile artists have rejuvenated the medium and museums have dusted down their historic collections and put them back on display. Illustrated with stunning photography that explores this rich art-form, past and present, this title is the most comprehensive and beautiful survey of taxidermy ever produced.'
