In my hand I’m holding a random assortment of seeds I collected from a recent walk in a prairie. If I hadn’t collected them myself, I might think they were tiny specks of dry, broken grass or leaves. I might not even see them at all, they appear so insignificant, like dust or lint from the inner reaches of a pocket. 

In a new exhibit at the Dayton Art Institute called “Archiving Eden”, photographer Dornith Doherty turns her lens to the critical issue of seed saving, and global efforts to conserve the world’s food sources. Her compositions use Xrays of seeds and plants along with documentary images from facilities around the world working to sustain the planet’s biodiversity...

You can learn a lot about a person by looking at their house. That is the premise behind “For a Dreamer of Houses,” a contemporary art exhibition now on view at the Dallas Museum of Art through July 4, 2021.

The exhibition was scheduled to open to the public on March 15, but the museum closed on March 14 because of the coronavirus pandemic. After five months of peering into relatives’, friends’ and colleagues’ houses during Zoom meetings, visitors can now see contemporary artists’ interpretations of such intimate spaces...

On July 21st, Holly Johnson Gallery will be celebrating 15 years with an all-women artists exhibition. Another milestone is that the gallery had its longest-running show. Joan Winter had art on the wall from early May to the present and the art will be coming down on August 8th. With such a long-running show, it would be a shame to miss it. I find it easy to call or email the gallery to make an appointment. I urge you to contact the gallery and get out of the house. Art Galleries are social distancing destinations. A place you can visit and still feel safe. This is your moment to have a private art visit, take it...
