The Eyes of Texas

 "Texas Art and Texas Light" 
American Arts Quarterly, Volume 27, number 3.


Dennis Blagg’s panoramic landscapes, like his Passover (1997), take one out further west, to the eternal vast country that evokes the Biblical deserts of the Old Testament. Patrick Gabriel captures every mood and aspect of the Texas light, from the flat, sun-baked afternoon to the pinkish thundercloud over the high-tension power lines, to the soft evening over the prairie.

FWADA Fall Gallery Night

Visit Art This Week

This week we interview Paula Kornye Tillman, president of the Fort Worth Art Dealer’s Association (FWADA), about the upcoming Fall Gallery Night. It’s a great day (and night) for the community of Fort Worth to come together and support local art museums and galleries. All FWADA member galleries are open from 2-9pm, this Saturday, September 11, 2010. At FWADA’s website, you can find out more information about each member (with links to their respective websites) and there is also a map with the location of each institution. This week, you can visit any of the member’s galleries where they will have a wonderful brochure with information on current exhibitions. Find out more information about the association and this weekend’s Fall Gallery Night at FWADA’s website: fwada.com. - Courtesy of Art This Week
