Dallas Museum of Art

Comprised of a dozen works including paintings, drawings and prints, this concise, powerful exhibition offers the first in-depth view of the most recent work of an acknowledged master of contemporary art, Jasper Johns. Focusing on the work of this celebrated artist since his 1997 retrospective, the exhibition explores a variety of themes, from personal to cosmological. Incorporating a variety of media including encaustic, sand, wood, and string, the exhibit marks another pivotal point in John's commanding life as one of the most important figures in the art of the last 50 years.

Organized by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the exhibition debuted there and traveled to the Yale University Art Gallery before its appearance in Dallas. This presentation marks the first time the DMA's Tower Gallery, on the Hamon Building's fourth floor, will be used for a contemporary art exhibition. Free.
