On Feb. 12, Donald Siniff, professor emeritus, will chronicle his travels to the Antarctic, the Earth’s coldest, least hospitable continent. Siniff studies seals that live in the region’s waters and pack ice, and spent much of his time at McMurdo station and on the ship Hero, a 125-foot wooden-hulled research vessel. The series concludes on March 12 with tales from the steamier climes of Borneo, where University biologist Dawn Tanner traveled to the Danum Valley Conservation Area, a pristine lowland rainforest.

New York-based artist and printmaker Lothar Osterburg presents a mysterious and magical world of fanciful bridges, shantytowns, and flying machines -- all actually small models he has built from found materials, which he then prints using the traditional photogravure process, bringing each scene to life with a range of subtle greys and rich dark tones. Through March 17; gallery hours Mon.-Fri., 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Highpoint Center for Printmaking, 2638 Lyndale Ave. S., Minneapolis. 612/871-1326, www.highpointprintmaking.org
