    Special exhibit unveils never-before-seen paintings by George W. Bush

    Despite a penchant for privacy, former president George W. Bush is finally going to share his personal paintings with the world. Dubya's artwork will soon be on display at the George W. Bush Presidential Center in Dallas.

    According to a statement from the library and museum, the exhibit, coming in early April, will showcase more than two dozen never-before-seen portraits painted by Bush. The paintings will be accompanied by artifacts, photographs and personal reflections.

    Called "The Art of Leadership: A President’s Personal Diplomacy," the exhibit will explore President Bush's relationships with world leaders and how they shaped international policy and advanced American interests abroad.

    Dubya's artistic aptitude was first revealed due to the efforts of a hacker known as Guccifer. Since then, we have all seen his attempts at dogs, cats and even a portrait of Jay Leno. His limited-edition holiday ornament featuring a cardinal was immensely popular and backordered for months.

    George W. Bush's hand-painted Christmas ornament sold out and has been on backorder for months.

    PDNB Gallery leaves Dallas Design District for new location

    An iconic Dallas Design District gallery is leaving the Design District after 30 years: Photographs Do Not Bend, aka PDNB Gallery, is leaving its location at 150 Manufacturing St. and relocating to Denton.

    The gallery is moving to downtown Denton on the historic County Courthouse Square. The new location is at 101 S. Locust St., #B07, inside the Wells Fargo Bank Building, in the basement suite.

    The move to Denton represents a return of sorts: In the early 1990’s, PDNB owners Burt & Missy Finger were private art and antique watch dealers, based in an office building on the Square. In 1995 they opened their photo-based art gallery in Dallas, the big city with a strong museum presence and a thriving art community.

    For 30 years PDNB flourished in the local, regional, national, and international art community. But the owners were still living in Denton.

    The Wells Fargo building is a 9-floor structure, a modest tan rectangle that was built in 1960. The building started out as First State Bank of Texas, which was based in Denton. Wells Fargo acquired the company in 2001. It was originally three stories tall, but five more floors were added in 1971. It currently has apartments and an event space on the 8th floor.

    According to a release, the new location will not only be more convenient for the couple's commute, it acknowledges that Denton has grown in recent years, with restaurants, wine bars, food trucks, music concerts, and art events.

    Denton is also home to two major universities — Texas Woman's University and the University of North Texas — which both have strong Fine Arts schools. During the tenure of Dean Robert Milnes, the couple opened a satellite art gallery on the Square, which continues to operate in their new location a block off of the Square.

    Denton also has the Greater Denton Arts Council’s Center for Visual Art, now the Patterson-Appleton Arts Center. PDNB looks forward to collaborating with all these institutions, as well as meeting local artists and art collectors.

    PDNB Gallery will host a group exhibition at the new space in June, followed by a special opening celebrating its 30th anniversary in September. Gallery hours will be announced once the move has completed.
