Three soccer exhibitions to see in DFW this summer in honor of North America hosting the World Cup and Dallas being one of the 11 host cities:
1) Soccer: More Than a Game at the
Such a fun experience for the whole family, open through September 7. Ticket prices are astronomical, please park close to El Fenix at the meters to save at least a little, that’s a German pro tip for you 😊⚽️
2) at Toyota Stadium will host Legends of Soccer Exhibit starting June 13, more info TBD, but I think it’ll be worth checking it out for the building alone.
3) More Than a Match at , the most artful of the three, with works by Andy Warhol and historical background on the sport. Tickets are $25 for adults and $20 for 17 years and under.
PS: for those who complain that it’s called ‚soccer’ in the States, you can thank the Brits, that was their idea 😂

One of my favorite Dallas artists, , is having a solo show at the right now that, for a lack of better words, is simply beautiful. It is rare to see so much manual labor and aestheticism in contemporary art and at the same time to feel so much calmness radiate from it. My daughter particularly loved the film that documented Du’s meticulous artistic process. Speaking of daughter, she had me pose so much the gallery attendant praised her photography skills 😄

Francisco Moreno‘s solo show at the has everything I enjoy in contemporary art: Humor, painterly precision (I like neo-realism, sue me!), appropriation, mythology, grotesque… it made me want to go to Mexico City so badly. Truly, a feast for the eyes!
