The exhibition "Return to Dinotopia" opened on April 4 at the Centre for Life in Newcastle (UK).
Patrick Gyger, director of Maison d'Ailleurs, supervised the installation. Here’s how the room looked before the exhibition was fully in place.
Jeanette and I are looking forward to visiting Newcastle-upon-Tyne this summer to see the museum and to visit some schools in the area.
The Dinotopia exhibition consists of about 50 original oil paintings from Dinotopia: Journey to Chandara (2007). The show will continue for the whole summer, after which it will travel to Nantes in France for the Utopiales festival.
If there are any other museums in Europe that might be interested in hosting the “Return to Dinotopia” in 2010 and beyond, please contact Patrick Gyger, link.

I was just there in November. Bummer that I missed this exhibit by only a few months. There are some nice paintings in the Laing Art Gallery though (Lawrence Talma Adema, William Holman Hunt, John Martin and more).
wow, no way, Dinotopia eventually reached the UK!! Newcastle is not far from where I live; I'll be sure to check it out! :D
