    From Commemoration to Education: Pompeo Coppini's Statue of Jefferson Davis
    Commissioned in 1919 by university regent Major George W. Littlefield the statue was envisioned as part of a much larger allegorical memorial, the Littlefield Fountain, intended to honor Texans who died in the Civil War and World War I while also addressing the reconciliation of the northern and southern states between those wars. However, the memorial and its campus setting and cultural context changed significantly over the course of its development. No longer an object of commemoration, the statue was moved in 2015 and now forms part of a new exhibition that explores the statue's history, as well as its significance as both a work of art and evidence of the past.

    Special exhibititon and first US retrospective exhibition of 100 works including her experiments in Cubism and Expressionism, melancholic street scenes and domestic interiors, and a wide selection of rarely seen drawings that demonstrate her superb draftsmanship.  The installation will feature examples of Art Deco fashion and design to place Lempicka's unique achievements in the context of her times.

    Picturing Nature: British Landscapes and Beyond (January 12 through July 6, 2025)
    Featuring over 70 works of art in a variety of media, explores how the genre of landscape evolved during an era of immense transformation in Britain. This diverse collection of watercolors, drawings, prints, and oil sketches traces the shift from topographical and picturesque depictions of the natural world to intensely personal ones that align with Romantic poetry of the period.  The exceptional Stuart Collection includes standout works by such notable artists as Richard Wilson, Thomas Gainsborough, John Robert Cozens, John Constable, and J.M.W. Turner, whose innovative approaches to watercolor raised its status as an art form and heralded a golden age for the medium. 


    THE PEARL MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS •  www.pearlmfa.org

The Pearl is wholly supported through the community. Over 3,000 donors have given to the museum to date.

    Edvard Munch Portraits (through June 15, 2025)
    Edvard Munch was, contrary to the impression one might get from his most famous painting, a sociable, gregarious character. That is the thesis put forward by the National Portrait Gallery in this exhibition of more than 40 of Munch’s portraits of friends, family, peers, patrons, collectors and himself, which highlights the extensive network of acquaintances the artist made and the ways in which he honed and adapted his painting techniques over the course of his long career

See many of the artist’s best-known sculptures alongside works by artists who came after, inspired by the radical intimacy of his public monuments.

    Tissot, Women and Time (December 20, 2024 - June 29, 2025)
    Exploring the many ways that the French artist James Tissot represented modern women and envisioned their relationship to time during the last decades of the nineteenth century, this exhibition presents two of the AGO’s most beloved Tissot paintings alongside a selection of more than 40 works on paper donated by Allan and Sondra Gotlieb. The contradiction of the period come alive in these works, as the quickness of modernity, exemplified by the newfound speed of travel, fashion and commodity culture, is juxtaposed against the constrained pace of women’s everyday lives, characterized by the wait to find a husband, caregiving, tending to customers or recovering from illness.
