October 04, 2021 Susan Hagen Susan Hagen '80 is featured in the exhibition Birds of North America at The Drawing Room. A 128-page book, featuring 82 of Susan Hagen's miniature drawings of North American Birds, accompanies the exhibition. Hagen encountered the birds mostly while walking in wetlands, forests, and urban landscapes in and around Philadelphia in 2020-21. The format of the text, by collaborating poets Nathalie Anderson and Lisa Sewell, is derived from the rondelet, whose back and forth structures echo the way birds call and sing to each other across space. The book was beautifully designed by Andrea Hemmann of GHI Design and can be purchased at The Drawing Room and the Wagner Free Institute of Science.
