In conjunction with TCU’s sesquicentennial, the School of Art is hosting a group exhibition featuring the work of 150 artists in all media accompanied by an exhibition publication that explores the legacy of the visual arts at TCU. As part of the programming for the exhibition, "150 Years/150 Artists," a panel discussion was held featuring panelists and a moderator whose contributions to TCU span over 50 years. Panelists include alumni faculty/students/staff David E. Conn, Devon Nowlin, Lillian Young, Bernardo Vallarino, and Dan Jian and moderator Mark Thistlethwaite.
"150 Years/150 Artists" runs March 24 - May 6, 2023 at Fort Worth Contemporary Arts, 2900 W. Berry, Fort Worth, TX. The exhibition celebrates the talent and range of 150 current and alumni visual artists who have contributed to the creative life of TCU.
Artists featured in the exhibition include current TCU student and faculty artists, and alumni students and faculty artists. Selections of works by local and regional artists from the TCU permanent collection, and selections of archival materials from TCU’s Special Collections will also be included.
Fine Arts have been taught at TCU since the 1880s, and during these early years of the university, students publicly displayed their art works in studio exhibitions. The College of Fine Arts moved into its own building, Ed Landreth Hall & Auditorium, in 1949, and the School of Art was later housed in the Moudy North Building in 1982, which included the Moudy Gallery, TCU’s first custom-designed gallery. Decades later, Fort Worth Contemporary Arts, TCU’s satellite gallery, was opened in 2008 at a location on the southern edge of campus.
Today, TCU’s School of Art is a NASAD-accredited program that offers the B.A. and M.A. in Art History, as well as the B.A., B.F.A. and M.F.A. in Studio Art and the B.F.A. in Art Education. The School’s interdisciplinary learning environment encourages students to explore all media from traditional art practice - such as drawing and painting, hands-on techniques in sculpture, ceramics, photography and printmaking -and receive training in the latest technologies, such as 3D printing, videography and robotics. Our faculty are active in the visual arts by publishing research, exhibiting their work in museums and galleries, and lecturing nationally and internationally, and the Art Galleries at TCU present unique exhibitions and projects by inspiring contemporary artists.
As well as the visual art that is found in the School of Art and Art Galleries at TCU, the University also has a Permanent Art Collection valued over $3 million.
