Come and “meet” a menagerie of our furry, finned, and feathered friends depicted across more than 100 photographs and archival objects from the CCP’s collection. Animality: 100 Years of Photographs features a wide range of photographic formats, a diverse group of photographers, and all manner of animals across a century of time. Visitors of all ages are invited to explore and discover the ways photographs reveal aspects of the many kinds of relationships between humans and animals.
Animality was created in collaboration with seven University of Arizona honors students—Dylan Brown, Maya Cervantes, Emma Charles, Charles Elliott, Emily Hogg, Emma Mireles, and Shay Parchem—who participated in professors Netzin and Dieter Steklis’s Fall 2025 course, Human and Animal Interrelationships. The interdisciplinary exhibition is organized around eleven thematic groupings, which together address human-animal interactions, human and animal expressions, and animal welfare.
