    • The Modern, 3200 Darnell Street, Fort Worth, TX 76107


    Jonah Freeman and Justin Lowe create architectural installations that physically and psychologically immerse viewers in an expansive alternate universe. Sunset Corridor, 2024, is the latest chapter in the artists’ deep dive into the San San Universe, their fictional, retrofuturistic domain. San San is partially based on a futurist theory put forth by Herman Kahn and Anthony Weiner in their book The Year 2000 (1967), which speculated that San Diego and San Francisco would merge into one giant metropolis by the turn of the twenty-first century. Although this prediction never came to pass, the theory is foundational to Freeman and Lowe’s creation: an adjacent world that parallels modern-day reality and illuminates our society’s relationships to technology, music, drugs, subcultures, and politics.

    This new series will kick off with a lecture by the collaborative duo Jonah Freeman + Justin Lowe as they discuss Sunset Corridor, 2024, their latest chapter of the ongoing series of narrative ecosystems, Saturday, October 5 at 2 pm in the Modern’s auditorium.

    • Amon Carter Museum of American Art, 3501 Camp Bowie Blvd., Fort Worth, TX 76107

    Drawn from the Museum’s holdings, Richard Hunt: From Paper to Metal highlights the artist’s prints produced at the Tamarind Lithography Workshop during a residency in 1965 and a newly-acquired sculpture, Natural Form, created in Hunt’s signature direct-welded metal technique.

    The first Black sculptor to receive a retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1971, Chicago-based artist Richard Hunt was one of the most remarkable and prolific sculptors of the 20th and 21st centuries, having created over 160 public monuments nationwide. Featuring 25 lithographs from the Carter’s collection that have never been on view, Richard Hunt: From Paper to Metal showcases Hunt’s unique approach to creating flat, two-dimensional prints that allude to his sculptural processes and interest in surreal-like skeletal structures. This Carter-organized exhibition is one of the first to highlight Hunt’s dialogue between his 2D graphic ideas and 3D welded sculptures, relaying his visionary creations that propelled American sculpture forward.

    In the seventeenth century, Dutch merchants sailed across seas and oceans, joining trade networks that stretched from Asia to the Americas and Africa. This unprecedented movement of goods, ideas, and people gave rise to what many consider the first age of globalization and sparked an artistic boom in the Netherlands. 

    Dutch Art in a Global Age brings together paintings by Rembrandt, Frans Hals, Gerrit Dou, Jacob van Ruisdael, Maria Schalcken, and other celebrated artists from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston’s renowned collection. These are joined by four Dutch paintings from the Kimbell’s permanent collection, along with prints, maps, and stunning decorative objects in silver, porcelain, and more, from the seventeenth and the first half of the eighteenth centuries. Exploring how Dutch dominance in international commerce transformed life in the Netherlands and created an extraordinary cultural flourishing, the exhibition also includes new scholarship that contextualizes seventeenth-century Dutch art within the complex histories of colonial expansion, wealth disparity, and the transatlantic slave trade during this period.

    • The Modern, 3200 Darnell Street, Fort Worth, TX 76107

    Diaries of Home features works by women and nonbinary artists, who explore the multilayered concepts of family, community, and home.

    These artists challenge documentary photography by pushing it into conceptual, performative, and theatrical realms. They probe preconceptions about domestic, familial, and communal spaces in the United States, which are often considered feminine spheres. Such environments and their relationship to feminism and feminist art have a history dating back to the 1970s—especially in photography, where women artists have been among the strongest voices. The photographers presented in Diaries of Home show us the dynamics of both biological and constructed families; for example, Sally Mann takes up her three children as subject matter in lush portraits that are intimate and compelling, while Nan Goldin portrays her lover and group of friends as a kind of chosen family. Each artist offers visual narratives ranging from the very personal to broader examinations of society in works that depict tales of love, desire, loss, home, and the intricacies of human relationships.

    The artists in Diaries of Home use the vernacular of documentary photography, which creates an immediate sense of familiarity and understanding. Yet, the works subvert the implied truthfulness of the imagery by exploring the medium’s inherent subjectivity through enticing fiction and drama, or by magnifying everyday affairs. The affection, kinship, hardship, and deeply intimate narratives captured lend a diaristic quality to the photographs, creating a conceptual focal point that inspired the exhibition’s title.

    Diaries of Home features a diverse, multi-generational group of artists with a variety of photographic processes, ranging from printed images to slides and video. Patty Chang, Jess T. Dugan, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Nan Goldin, Debbie Grossman, Letitia Huckaby, Deana Lawson, Laura Letinsky, Sally Mann, Arlene Mejorado, Catherine Opie, Laurie Simmons, and Carrie Mae Weems use themselves and others as center points to explore various social relations in and outside of the home. The resulting imagery that gives shape to Diaries of Home captures the psychological interiority, the complex family dynamics, and the inconsequential and profound moments of daily routine—all aspects that compose a life’s journey.

    The exhibition is co-curated by Chief Curator Andrea Karnes and Assistant Curator Clare Milliken. 

    Diaries of Home features mature themes that may be sensitive for some viewers.
