Title Description - The Urban Fauna Information Station is made up of a travelling trio of artists observing and logging all manner of metropolitan animal life, from the goose lamp illuminating an apartment window to a butterfly collection at a nature lab and a person dressed in a gorilla suit. This book documents with photographs and no words, the Information Station's sojourn in Montreal and Toronto in the Summer of 2002. The images of ceramic cats, painted puppies, bottled specimens, and stuffed tigers, are complemented by watercolors and photographs depicting the curious scientific activities of this collaborative team. 29 June 2009 (printedmatter.org).
