Description
In tandem with each exhibition of Texas Collects Asia, the Crow Collection invites you to join us for a series of lectures and conversations with curators and collectors, illuminating those who helped us realize this important initiative. There is a “collecting spirit” within each of the collectors who have, in a reflection of the gracious spirit of Trammell and Margaret Crow, so generously shared their treasures with this exhibition. Discover how these Texans, brought together for the first time, developed their own passion for the arts of Asia and hear from the curators who selected their works of art for these landmark exhibitions.
Scholars: Shiyuan Yuan, Curator/Collections Manager, The Crow Collection of Asian Art James Godfrey, Independent Scholar
Collectors: Teresa Tsao, Collector of Chinese Celadons and Former Curator of Ceramics at the National Palace Museum, Tai Pei John L. Hendry III, Collector of Chinese Art Margarida and Penn Williamson, Collectors of Chinese Art

GWAR / Kingdom of Sorrow / Toxic Holocaust Only lead singer Oderus Urungus (aka Dave Brockie) has stuck around since GWAR's start 23 years ago, but the huge costumes, raunchy and obscene lyrics, and fluids spraying into the audience are sure to be on full display as the metal band makes its return to Dallas.
