America Will Be!: Surveying the Contemporary Landscape

April 06 - October 06,2019

A focus exhibition of works primarily from the DMA’s collection of contemporary art that take the American landscape as a point of departure. "Vija Celmins, Richard Diebenkorn, Brice Marden, Louise Nevelson, and Thomas Struth will be shown alongside leading and emerging contemporary artists like Jennifer Allora and Guillermo Calzadilla, Mark Bradford, TR Ericsson, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Faith Ringgold, and Adriana Varejão. A number of recent acquisitions will make their DMA debut in the show. These include works by Thornton Dial, Ronald Lockett, and Nellie Mae Rowe, African American folk artists from the South whose works and histories are preserved by the Souls Grown Deep Foundation in Atlanta. Artists whose works were acquired from the Dallas Art Fair and which will be on view at the Museum for the first time include Justin Adian, Sanford Biggers, Shara Hughes, Matthew Ronay, Brie Ruais, and Summer Wheat."
