The Animal Gaze examines new ways in which animals appear in contemporary art and the ethics and aesthetics to which such practice may be subject. Representations of animals that regularly appear elsewhere in visual culture are avoided (no animals as decoration, nor status symbols and vehicles for ancient mythology or totemic ritual). Instead, the exhibition shows stances outside anthropocentrism, deconstructions of species taxonomies, constructions of the idea of difference and documentation of the consequences of indifference.
The Animal Gaze includes video works by artists working in the UK and internationally. They visualise humans´ real and imaginary encounters with other species, and portray animals that are domestic and wild, working and at rest, alone and huddled to gether. Capturing all the affective power of such animal encounters, The Animal Gaze challenges the viewer to look at animals differently and, perhaps, to perceive animals looking back.

Artists: Angela Bartram, Sarah Beddington, Catherine Bell, Suky Best, Rich Broomhall, Chloë Brown, Mircea Cantor, Roz Cran, Roswitha von den Driesch and Jens-Uwe Dyffort, Tessa Farmer, Hayden Fowler, Kathy High, Jacob Cartwright and Nick Jordan, Cathryn Jiggens, Aurelia Mihai, Daniel Mijic, Roz Mortimer, Melody Owen, Clara Rueprich, Miranda Whall.
