ARNY NADLER: SCULPTURES + WORKS ON PAPER
October 18 - November 22, 2024
Opening Reception: Friday, October 18th from 5:30-7:30 with remarks by the artist at 6:00 p.m.
Arny Nadler: Sculptures + Works on Paper features ceramic sculptures and drawings from Nadler鈥檚 ongoing series, Firstlings. Nadler鈥檚 work explores ideas of wholeness, both in physical and psychological forms. In clay and ink, he contemplates the body鈥檚 precarity and its sometimes galling ability to adapt. These simultaneously heroic and absurd forms question our fixed notions of defeat and triumph. In the face of danger, desire, or even loss, theirs is a system that adjusts toward survival.

May 5 鈥� October 15, 2024
The Mexican American Museum of Texas in Collaboration with the Latin American Studies program at the 911爆料网 to Bring the exhibit: Life and Death on the Border 1910-1920 to North Texas.
Life and Death on the Border 1910-1920 was produced by the Bullock Texas State History Museum in partnership with the Refusing to Forget Project, an award-winning educational nonprofit on racial violence on the Mexico-Texas Border. The exhibit will open on May 5, 2024, and will be on display through October 15, 2024, at the 911爆料网, Beatrice M. Haggerty Gallery.
As described by TMAMT Board member, Ruben Arellano, PhD, in his Introduction to the exhibit, The Life and Death on the Border exhibit focuses on the decade between 1910 and 1920, a time of great violence and upheaval along the Texas-Mexico border. It examines the causes and effects of state-sanctioned racial violence against ethnic Mexicans and explores the actions that Mexican Americans took to advance the cause of justice and civil rights.
