El Museo Meadows de Dallas, especializado en arte español, ha ampliado su colección de obras contemporáneas con obras de Ignasi Aballí, José Hernández y Miguel Zapata. A menudo, al Meadows Museum se le llama "el pequeño Prado de Texas", pero también es un Museo Reina Sofía a escala reducida. Informa Íñigo PicabeaEscuchar audio

Su historia es corta pero intensa, la de una ciudad en perpetuo crecimiento y reinvención. Lejos queda el cliché del petróleo y los cowboys; superada está la imagen que mostraba la teleserie del mismo nombre; curado, el trauma colectivo desencadenado por el asesinato de John F. Kennedy en 1963. Y mientras todo fluye, algo permanece inmutable en el alma de Dallas: su pasión por las artes. Bien lo sabe Janet Kafka, cónsul honoraria de España para todo el norte de Texas. Acostumbrada a recibir visitas, esta antigua alumna de la Complutense nos enseña los rincones más especiales de su ciudad natal. Desde Founder's Plaza caminamos hasta el memorial dedicado a JFK, a una manzana del lugar donde Lee Harvey Oswald acabó con la vida del presidente un 22 de noviembre. En el inmueble desde el que efectuó los disparos abre sus puertas el Sixth Floor Museum, institución que recuerda el magnicidio; la visitamos en compañía de Óscar Vela, de la oficina de turismo de Dallas. Paseamos por el Downtown y nos detenemos en el enorme distrito de las artes, repleto de museos, teatros y auditorios firmados por reconocidos arquitectos como Renzo Piano, I. M. Pei, Norman Foster o Rem Koolhaas. En el veterano Dallas Museum of Art nos atiende su director, Agustín Arteaga. Además contamos con la directora de turismo de Visit Dallas, Liliana Rivera, que nos acompaña hasta Deep Ellum, barrio muy animado y musical en cuya Blues Alley nos espera el muralista urbano Hatziel Flores. Después de echar un vistazo al también bohemio Bishop Arts District ponemos rumbo hacia la Universidad Metodista del Sur, que atesora una de las mejores colecciones de arte español de Estados Unidos en el Meadows Museum. Su directora, Amanda Dotseth, y su responsable de comunicación para España y Latinoamérica, Julián Hernández, nos invitan a recorrer esta peculiar pinacoteca inspirada en El Prado de Madrid. Terminamos viaje en la vecina Fort Worth, donde Estela Martínez, de su departamento de turismo, nos muestra las particularidades de una ciudad que –ésta sí– conserva un auténtico espíritu vaquero, compatible con el amor por el arte que destila su Kimbell Art Museum.

Abrimos El Ojo Crítico con Rafael Bonachela, el coreógrafo y director artístico de la Sydney Dance Company que pasó de inventar coreografías en el patio de su colegio a crearlas para la compañía de danza más importante de Australia. Además, en Barcelona: Conxita Casanovas ha estado con Woody Allen, que además de presentar película ('Golpe de suerte') ofrecerá un doble concierto junto a la New Orleans Jazz Band y Mery Cuesta nos acerca a la exposición 'La mano guiada'. Y cerramos desde Dallas, donde Íñigo Picabea visitó el Meadows Museum, pequeño Prado estadounidense que tiene estos días un monográfico sobre Sorolla.

This week I sat down with Dr. Amanda Dotseth. She is the museum curator for the Meadows Museum at SMU in Dallas, TX. She specializes in medieval Spanish history and art. Amanda is extremely bright and lovely to talk with. This episode is a stark reminder of why awareness of our past is so critical for our future.

The BC Museum Portraits Project is an audio interview and photography initiative that will result in an online archive of the ‘institutional memory’ of the Province’s museums and archives. We’re excited to preview this new collaboration between Spencer Stuart and the BC Museums Association on our website.

In this episode of This Is Centenary – the first Centenary podcast produced via Zoom! – artist Michelle Burdine discusses her interdisciplinary work and highlights her current exhibition, “And Time Passed.” Meadows Director Heather Wetzel moderated this conversation, the first in a series of virtual artist talks scheduled for fall 2020, on September 24. “And Time Passed” is an examination of the intersections of time loss, grief, and family, and is currently installed in the downstairs gallery at the Meadows Museum of Art. Although the Museum is closed to the public during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, a 3D tour is available on the Meadows website at themeadowsmuseum.com.

Mark A Roglan Episode 2 Show NotesOur conversation was taped on June 5, 2020.In this episode, I speak with Mark A Roglan, the Linda P. and William A. Custard Director of the Meadows Museum at Southern Methodist University in Dallas.We discuss his career path, projects, and the role of university museums and the Meadow’s status as a satellite embassy for Spanish culture. About the Meadows Museum:The Meadows Museum is the leading U.S. institution focused on the study and presentation of the art of Spain. In 1962, Dallas businessman and philanthropist Algur H. Meadows donated his private collection of Spanish paintings, as well as funds to start a museum, to Southern Methodist University. The museum opened to the public in 1965, marking the first step in fulfilling Meadows’s vision to create “a small Prado for Texas.” Today, the Meadows is home to one of the largest and most comprehensive collections of Spanish art outside of Spain. The collection spans from the 10th to the 21st centuries and includes medieval objects, Renaissance and Baroque sculptures, and major paintings by Golden Age and modern masters.Meadows Museum: https://meadowsmuseumdallas.org About Mark:Dr. Mark A. Roglán is the Linda P. and William A. Custard Director of the Meadows Museum and Centennial Chair in the Meadows School of the Arts at Southern Methodist University. He has been director of the Museum since January 1, 2006. He joined the Meadows Museum as interim curator and adjunct assistant professor of art history in October 2001. He became curator of collections in January 2002 and senior curator in June 2004. He also serves as adjunct associate professor in the Division of Art History at SMU's Meadows School of the Arts. Under his leadership the museum has increased its attendance; has developed a major program of international exhibitions; has created meaningful fellowships; produced insightful publications; constructed a new sculpture garden and outside spaces; made major acquisitions; formed new ways of educating and connecting with art for impaired people; as well as established strategic alliances with major museums, most importantly with the Museo Nacional del Prado. Before coming to the Meadows Museum, Dr. Roglán worked as a curatorial fellow and a research associate in the 19th-century painting and sculpture department of the Museo Nacional del Prado in Madrid, Spain. Prior to his tenure at the Prado, Dr. Roglán served as a drawings department assistant with the Fogg Museum at Harvard University. During the previous academic year, he studied at Tufts University through a Universidad Autónoma de Madrid Scholarship. Among other fellowships and honors, Dr. Roglán was awarded an Erasmus European Union Scholarship for a year-long study at the Université Libre de Bruxelles in Belgium.

In this episode of This is Centenary, two accomplished Centenary graduates visit their alma mater to celebrate the culmination of a unique project that began more than ten years ago. Dr. Aleksandra Kasztalska (Kaz-tal-ska), a linguist, and Dr. Elinora Madrid, a primary care physician, discussed their edited French-language volume of Benjamin Franklin’s Les Bagatelles, during a special event at Centenary’s Meadows Museum of Art on Monday, January 13. Les Bagatelles was published by Les Éditions Tintamarre, Centenary’s French-language academic press.

In this episode of This is Centenary, artist Joan Hall discusses her exhibit Global Contamination: A Gulf Project, which was presented at the College’s Meadows Museum of Art from January through March, 2019. Hall’s work reflects her passion for ocean environments and uses information on climate change and scientific data as “points of departure” for creative exploration. Hall delivered the lecture on January 17, 2019, at the Meadows Museum.

In this episode of This is Centenary, 1979 Centenary graduate Elaine McArdle discusses and reads from her critically-acclaimed book, The Neuroscientist Who Lost Her Mind, co-authored with neuroscientist Barbara Lipska. The book traces Lipska’s poignant journey after she developed symptoms of dementia and schizophrenia – similar to the conditions she studies in others – but discovered that her behaviors were related to nearly 20 cancerous tumors growing in her brain. This episode was recorded on November 6, 2018, during a 2018 Homecoming Week event at Centenary’s Meadows Museum of Art.

The 18th Century Spanish artist Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes has been called the “most radical artist that ever lived”. He was not afraid to shock with his depictions of the darkest sides of human nature, and his work still shocks us today. Goya rose from humble beginnings to become the official court painter to the kings of Spain. But while he created dazzling portraits of royals and aristocrats, his personal vision was filled with madmen, witches, beggars, and fantastical creatures of the night. His years in the Spanish court coincided with one of the most turbulent times in the country's history, and his graphic images of war and suffering reveal a compulsion to make art that changed the way we think about the world. Bridget Kendall discusses Goya's life and works with Mark Roglán, Director of the Meadows Museum at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, in the US; Janis Tomlinson, Director of Special Collections and Museums at the University of Delaware in the US; And Xavier Bray, Director of the Wallace Collection in London, UK.

Mary Vernon is a Dallas-based artist and former educator. Mary spent nearly 50 years at Southern Methodist University where she taught art history, painting and drawing, as well as SMU’s noted color theory course. Originally from New Mexico, she completed her undergraduate degree at Cal Berkeley and her MFA at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque. Mary’s paintings reflect the color theories she so famously taught at SMU. One of her most recent works (“Albers’ House”) is a 36-foot-long oil painting on yupo which was featured in a retrospective at the Grace Museum in Abiliene. Mary’s work can be found in notable local collections, such as The Belo Foundation, The George W. Bush Presidential Library, Meadows Museum, Dallas Country Club, and the U.T. Southwestern Medical Center. Mary is represented in Dallas by Valley House Gallery. I recently sat down with Mary at her Dallas studio where we discussed early inspirations, Berkeley in the ‘60s, her love of art history, the evolution of the Meadows collection, her impact on generations of art students, her love of yupo and a run-in with Georgia O’Keefe.

La gran exposición Sorolla y Estados Unidos, organizada conjuntamente por el Meadows Museum de Dallas, el Museo de Arte de San Diego y la Fundación Mapfre es la excusa perfecta para hablar del pintor de la luz. En 1909, lejos de su Mediterráneo, consiguió un éxito sin precedentes con una retrospectiva organizada por su mecenas, Archer Milton Huntington. Pero no son los lienzos de realismo social como '¡Otra Margarita!' o 'Triste herencia' ni sus famosísimas escenas de playa lo que llamará la atención del visitante conocedor de la obra de Joaquín Sorolla, sino los dibujos y gouaches que improvisó durante sus estancias en los hoteles de Chicago y Nueva York, prestados por primera vez para la ocasión por el Museo Sorolla. www.artecompacto.com

UA Museum of Art Assistant Curator Susannah Maurer takes a close look at the prints in Goya’s "Los Disparates." This lecture focuses on how the prints in this suite relate to the 14 oil paintings known as the "Black Paintings." Both the paintings and the prints share a dark, mysterious imagery that Goya scholar Frank Milne has described as “hermetic self-contained fantasies.” This lecture was being presented in conjunction with "Goya’s Mastery in Prints," a four-exhibition cycle of extraordinary etching suites by the Spanish master Francisco de Goya on loan from the Meadows Museum at Southern Methodist University in Dallas.
