BOOKS — Fine Taxidermy by Darwin, Sinke & van Tongeren
 

TEN YEARS OF
DARWIN, SINKE & VAN TONGEREN
IN ONE BOOK


Welcome to Packshots by Darwin, Sinke & van Tongeren—a celebration of ten years Fine Taxidermy.
This project unfolds in two parts:

1. The Book – To celebrate this milestone, we have created Packshots, a carefully curated volume showcasing 250 of our Fine Taxidermy artworks, now in collections around the world. With a foreword by Anton Corbijn and his wife Nimi, the book explores a world where diversity, conservation, and creativity come together.

The title Packshots is a nod to our background in advertising, where we used the term for product photography. However, these images are much more than that. We embraced the contrast in the name, highlighting how each photograph captures not just the artwork but the essence of our craft. While this is our second book, we do not refer to it as such—it stands on its own as both a visual archive and a reflection on the past ten years, while also looking toward the future.

2. The Art Prints – Beyond the book, we offer the opportunity to acquire these striking Packshots as art prints. To explore and order these images visit our dedicated ‘Packshots’ Art Prints page here

OUR FIRST BOOK

(SOLD OUT)


Author: Helen Chislett,  Sinke & van Tongeren

They consider Charles Darwin to be their executive director, their sources of inspiration are still lives by 16th and 17th century painters such as Jan Weenix, Frans Snijders and Melchior d'Hondecoeter and British artist Damien Hirst is their biggest fan. He bought their first collection of art works. You can call them flamboyant, special or strange, but the least you can say is that the career of Darwin, Sinke & van Tongeren is impressive. Their work is devoted to showing the ultimate beauty and magic of nature and amazes by the astonishing sculptured compositions, reviving animals. An ode to nature in all its glory.
