Art Review: Spain’s Museum of Abstract Art Comes to Texas

I love visiting Texas. I love Vermont, of course, but as a citadel of freedom and opportunity, well, that’s not Vermont’s calling card, alas. Freedom and opportunity define Texas, as do oil, cattle, civic pride, and, in the last 20 or 30 years, high culture. Texas has some wonderful museums.

I gave two lectures in the Big D. One was at the Meadows Museum, the academic art museum at Southern Methodist University. It’s one of my favorite museums, with an all-Spanish collection of the very highest quality and a reliably inventive, intelligent exhibition program.
