Since the 1960s the contemporary art scene in Texas has developed impressively and the exciting new artforms from this State have reached a growing and appreciative audience. Museums have expanded the scope of their exhibitions, more artists and art patrons have come to live in the metropolitan areas, and the fierce independence of Texas art has been increasingly recognized. Now, in the 1990s, and for the first time, three generations of artists are working simultaneously alongside each other. Artists in Texas work in multiple modes and frequently with unorthodox materials, away from the theoretical and commercial art world epicenters of New York and Los Angeles. But the sheer size of Texas underscores the complexity of the art scene taken as a whole: contemporary art in Texas has a nuance that is all its own and reflects it historical myths, the dreams of its heroes, and the social and political realities which pertain in the 1990s. This book addresses all of these themes and provides an insightful overview of contemporary art in this unique part of the country.
