Award-winning Japanese artist Mamoru Suzuki, who has collected more than 400 birds' nests from around the world, will hold an exhibition between Sept. 5 and Sept. 28 in New York to share what he considers to be nature's architectural wonders.

The exhibition coincides with the city marking the first anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks.

The event, at the Annex gallery, will be Suzuki's first overseas exhibition. It will feature 31 original nests supported by wooden stands, along with 30 of Suzuki's paintings of birds and nests.
