Mark Moore Fine Art is proud to announce Penelope Umbrico is featured in Animal Model — 200 Years of Photography at Photo Elysée in Lausanne, Switzerland, on view December 4, 2026 through April 4, 2027. Curated by Nathalie Herschdorfer and co-produced with Rencontres d’Arles, the exhibition brings together works from over 200 international artists tracing two centuries of human-animal relationships, from early 19th-century scientific documentation to contemporary internet bestiaries and urgent environmental commentary.
Umbrico’s installation, 176 Cat Portraits / eBay (of 20,335 Available Used Ceramic Cats), 2014–2026, is drawn from images of ceramic cats found on eBay — part of her ongoing investigation of everyday consumer and vernacular images, searching, in her words, for decisive moments that in these worlds are cultural absurdities.
