Now on view at the Blanton Museum of Art at The University of Texas at Austin, In the Company of Dogs and Cats, featuring over 150 works by masters such as Albrecht Dürer, Jean-Honoré Fragonard, William Blake, Francisco Goya, Paul Gauguin, Takahashi Hiroaki (Shotei), Pablo Picasso, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Edward Hopper, Louise Bourgeois, and others.
The museum is keeping most of the included works out of the press, but shared L'Artisan Moderne Poster by Henri Toulouse-Lautrec. I've never seen it before. Wonder what other dog-art treasures they have? If you go, let me know.
Exhibition runs until September 21, 2014.
Visit Blanton Museum of Art for more information.
Who knew Edvard Munch was a dog artist? Thirty-seven years after The Scream.

This painting looks like all my nieces combined and my sister's dog Danny.
J'adore.

I'm a founding member of a ten-person Nevada City artists' collective called DANK…
We're interested in post-Great Recession social issues, the rural ideal, and an anti-urban aesthetic grounded in the legacy of the California Gold Rush and the future of our planet…
A generous patron loaned us this empty building to have an art show…
We're artists, so we painted it…
Tyler Foote and I are collaborating on a piece for the show. Here's a sneak peek…
The show, DANK Inaugural, runs from July 11 to August 3, 2014. The opening reception is July 11, 5-9 pm.
Dogs are welcome. In fact, I am working on a second piece, Precious, that invites dogs to interact with it, so dogs are encouraged.
If you and your pup ever thought about visiting Nevada City, come this summer and see DANK.
Email me your address, and I'll send you a postcard…
