The Center for Study and Advancement of Early Texas Art
is proud to present Texas Treasures: Early Texas Art from Austin
Museums in connection with our seventh annual symposium to be held at
the AT&T Center on the University of Texas Campus.
Texas Treasures
is the first collective exhibition of important early Texas artworks
from the collections of the University of Texas Blanton Museum, the
University of Texas Harry Ransom Center, the Austin Museum of Art and
the Umlauf Sculpture Garden and Museum. Drawing from the extensive
collections of these Austin institutions, Texas Treasures features
twenty-four masterworks of early Texas art that have been rarely
available to the public. These seminal works express the breadth of
Texas art: from the origins of classical portraiture and impressionist
landscape painting in the nineteenth century, to the American Scene
painting of the depression era, to the many interpretations of
modernism at the mid-twentieth century.
