Friends of Fine and Decorative Art

From the Renaissance through the early 20th century, European and American masters dominated the Western European art world. Skilled in the realist traditions of European art academies or trained in noble craft traditions like silversmithing and furniture making, these artists furnished the royal courts and great houses of their day. Through lectures, and tours, curators of European and American painting, sculpture, and decorative art will lead this group in its exploration of exceptional works of art ranging from old masters to impressionist painting and from colonial American furniture to arts & crafts silver.


Friends of Modern and Contemporary Art and Design

During the last one hundred years, artistic revolutions shocked the world. From Frank Lloyd Wright to Jackson Pollock to Wolfgang Laib, the art of our time has broken barriers and pushed us in new directions. The Friends of Modern and Contemporary Art and Design strive to keep abreast of what’s new and interesting in the art world while seeking to learn more about earlier modern art movements that form the foundations of today’s trends. Lectures, artist visits, and interaction with curators of contemporary art, early modern art, and design will all be available to these modern-minded members.



Friends of World Art and Archaeology

Art is produced by all people. Through the ages, civilizations around the globe have painted extraordinary ceramics, erected beautiful buildings, woven intricate textiles, and painted striking pictures. From ancient Greece and China to modern Europe and America, art has had a central role in life. The Friends of World Art and Archaeology explore diverse artistic traditions of different cultures. Through lectures and tours, members will have the opportunity to explore the global nature of the Dallas Museum of Art’s collections, learn more about a wide range of art, meet other interested individuals like themselves, and become acquainted with the Museum’s curators.
 


The Dallas Museum of Art is supported in part by the generosity of Museum members and donors and by the citizens of Dallas through the City of Dallas/Office of Cultural Affairs and the Texas Commission on the Arts.
