    Mix It Up

    Dallas' Nasher Sculpture Center mixes up its collection for new exhibition

    Dallas' Nasher Sculpture Center mixes up its collection for new exhibition
    play icon

    Even in today's digital world, the mixtape is not dead — at least, not if the Nasher Sculpture Center has anything to say about it.

    The current exhibition "Nasher Mixtape," which is on display through September 26, 2021, brings together old favorites and recent acquisitions for an experience that's totally unique. It's a compilation of "tracks," or micro-exhibitions, focused on the Nasher's permanent collection and installed throughout the museum.

    Several historical works are also making their debut here — nearly one-third of the works on view inside the museum have never been shown at the Nasher, and others have not been exhibited for many years.

    The newest additions to the collection — by the likes of Judy Chicago, Melvin Edwards, Maren Hassinger, and Nicole Eisenman — take important strides in the ongoing work of diversifying the collection through the inclusion of more women and artists of color, as well as celebrating the endlessly inventive approaches artists take to sculpture.

    Here's a preview of what you can expect when visiting "Nasher Mixtape."

    Track 1 / "Into the Garden"
    The sculptures at the Nasher's entrance reference nature in their materials and themes, inviting visitors to continue into the garden, which architect Renzo Piano described as "the museum without a roof."

    Track 3 / "The Ends of Minimalism"
    This installation examines the legacies of Minimal art through the Nashers' support in the 1970s of artists including Siah Armajani, Martin Puryear, and Christopher Wilmarth, as well as the recent acquisition of a sculpture by Judy Chicago.

    Track 5 / "Lookin' down on my soul now"
    Taking its title from lyrics to Flying Lotus' song "Never Catch Me," featuring rapper Kendrick Lamar, this installation brings together a video work by lauren woods with sculptures by Joel Shapiro and Manuel Neri to reflect upon how we interpret images of historical events and human actions.

    Track 9 / "Love and Delight"
    At a time when the formation and sustenance of our connections with others have become more crucial than ever, "Love and Delight" offers a selection of works collected by the Nashers between 1967 and 1986 that trace unexpected links between artworks through the human bonds shared among artists, collectors, dealers, families, friends, spouses, lovers, and admirers.

    Track 10 / "The Guerrilla Girls"
    A selection of posters from the 1980s and 1990s by the anonymous collective targets museums, galleries, curators, collectors, writers, and artists seen as either responsible for or complicit in the exclusion of women and non-white artists from mainstream exhibitions and publications.

    Nasher Mixtape is on view at the Nasher Sculpture Center through September 26, 2021.

    Budget Cuts

    Funding cuts force Dallas Children's Theater to trim 2025-26 season

    The upcoming 2025-26 season for Dallas Children's Theater is shrinking, according to a new communication from its leadership.

    A June 2 email signed by executive director Samantha Turner, board president Leah Mora, and recently appointed artistic director Emily Ernst informs supporters that due to "the significant financial challenges of the current environment," DCT will be reducing the upcoming season from five mainstage shows to three.

    The email doesn't specifically call out the government's cuts to arts funding, but it is heavily implied, especially since other theaters have recently experienced financial difficulties due to the federal cuts.

    "We remain deeply committed to artistic excellence and to the 90,000 young people and families we serve annually," reads the email. "Though we will have fewer performances, we will continue to provide meaningful theatrical experiences that inspire children, nurture their imagination, and encourage connection with the world around them."

    The 2025-26 will retain the previously announced world premiere of The Pigeon Gets a Big Time Holiday Extravaganza! (November 22-December 21, 2025), as well as The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show (January 24-February 22, 2026) and Moon Mouse: A Space Odyssey (March 27-29, 2026), and add a new developmental workshop envisioned by Ernst.

    The Musical Adventures of Flat Stanley and Jungalbook will no longer be produced, and ticket-holders will be receiving instructions on ticket options.

    DCT Academy classes, a vital part of the theater’s work, will continue through the summer, concluding August 8. After that, Academy sessions will be temporarily paused. Families enrolled for the fall semester will receive a separate email with next steps.

    "Although our performances are well attended and our community support is strong, ticket sales cover only a small portion of the true cost of producing theater," the email explains. "At the same time, our operating costs have steadily increased while funding levels have remained flat. This financial pressure requires immediate action to keep DCT viable — not just for this season, but for the years ahead."

    Tickets for the 2025-26 season are on sale now.
