I was considering what artwork to enter in the Phillips staff show this year when I discovered one of my works already fits into a strange subsection of Phillips Collection artworks: dead birds. Below is an image of my artwork and here is a link with more information about a work by Albert Pinkham Ryder in the Phillips Collection titled Dead Bird (this link will also take you to a similar works by Henry Varnum Poor and Morris Graves).
Now that I am aware of it, I would like to know more about Phillips interest in the subject- is the thematic relationships of these 3 works important or is it mere coincidence?
