This art box investigates artists’ imaginings of mythical beasts and wild animals. Inspired by Pablo Picasso and his interest in the Minotaur, by Karel Appel and his child-like, mixed-up animal creations; by Henri Rousseau’s tiger, a wild and exotic creature he had never actually seen; and finally by legendary dragons from different cultures around the world.

Most great artists use shape and pattern in their compositions. In this box, we look at three artists who have particularly enjoyed playing with the idea of repetition and pattern: M. C. Escher with his love of tessellations; Fahrelnissa Zeid and her large-scale abstract paintings; and Camille Walala with her huge bold street-art murals filled with bright colour!
