SFMOMA says…

It's notable enough when art-addled architects redirect their creative attention to the natural world — think Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater house, or Andy Goldsworthy's structural projects. Fritz Haeg, however, has lately skewered animal-centric building concerns with his Animal Estates pieces, designing creature homes and installing them in the cities and strip malls that have displaced the inhabitants' original habitats. After the project's recent debut at the Whitney Biennial (where it was designed to attract and house eagles, bobcats, and salamanders, among others), Haeg comes to SFMOMA for a series of workshops in which participants learn how to make the fauna homes themselves.
