Long-time Dallas artist Doug MacWithey died August 27 of an apparent heart attack. See stories at Art & Seek and Testsite.

Cris Worley, formerly of PanAmerican Gallery, is opening a new space September 9. The inaugural show will include work by Charlotte Smith and, no doubt, others.

The Amon Carter Museum has added "of American Art" to its official name, so it's now the Amon Carter Museum of American Art.

From Ann Huey's Beaumont Stinks: "Beaumont is more Lousiana
than Texas — more gumbo, less Anglo, less Santa Fe, more etouffee —
and we're all tinted with a little swamp water."

Dallas painter and video artist Ann Huey says about her short film that won Texas Monthly's film contest, "This is the link to the short film I made for this competition. Before you wet your pants at my “grand prize” winning status, take a look at the other finalists*. I don’t mean to be critical of any of us in any way, just to note that this is not exactly Sundance. I plan on making this little video into a longer, more polished version someday — maybe I’ll call it Beaumont Still STINKS — with all the things I wanted to put in this one, but didn’t have time."

The Texas Biennial has extended its Call for Entry deadline for the 2011 statewide show to August 31. More info on our Ops page.

When guests of the Hilton Anatole, 2201 Stemmons Freeway, stroll into the hotel’s redesigned Atrium II space later this fall, they will discover Nebula, a structure, made by world-reknowned artist Reuben Margolin, with 10 miles of aircraft cable, 1,780 pulleys and over 4,500 amber crystals, floating above in a wavelike dance. For information about Margolin’s work, visit www.reubenmargolin.com or see videos on YouTube, Vimeo and YouTube.

New Dallas Contemporary Executive Director Peter Doroshenko

Dallas Contemporary has named Peter Doroshenko as their new Executive Director. Recently the President and Artistic Director of the Pinchuk Art Centre in Kiev, Mr. Doroshenko was selected from a field of national and international candidates.

Ray-Mel Cornelius   Outside   2010    acrylic on canvas   36 x 60 inches

This painting by Ray-Mel Cornelius debuted at the opening of Medical City Hospital's new Childrens' Hospital Wing, Dallas, Texas June 17.

Ray-Mel wrote, "It was commissioned (... pro bono) by the hospital for their new Childrens' Hospital wing. They wanted something fairly large to hang at the end of the hallway of their reception/admittance area leading to the elevators going up to the treatment facilities and rooms. I was chosen as the artist because a lot of my work uses a high keyed palette and imagery that suggests nature themes, which fit with the designers' concept of the facility's decor.

"Of course the design and imagery had to be very kid-friendly. My reasoning for the title and concept other than the obvious reference to the imagery, is that being outside is equivalent with being healthy. "Outside" in the fresh air, running, playing, all those things we associate with kids being outside, and what being treated in the hospital and getting better will help us get back to.

"That's what I was thinking, anyway. I like to think the painting will give the kids something to think about other than whatever treatments they may be about to undergo. Better to talk to the parents about floating fish and elephants shooting rainbows from their trunks than of needles and such."

See Ray-Mel's blog for photos of the event at rmcornelius.blogspot.com/2010/06/outside-secret-project-revealed.html or his DallasArtsRevue Member page for more of his work.

An interview with DallasArtsRevue Supporting Member Fannie Brito is featured on Ro2ART.

Decorazon Gallery is relocating. Owners Hugo Garcia Urrutia and MK Semos thanks everyone for their support and friendship and invite all to stop by the Bishop Arts location before it closes July 26. The new location will be announced via their website at www.DecorazonGallery.com.
