STUNNING
SHOWCASE
THE BLANTON MUSEUM
OF ART'S PERMANENT
COLLECTIONS GET A
REIMAGINED HOME AS IT
REOPENS ITS NEWLY
RENOVATED SECOND-FLOOR
GALLERIES.
Since opening its new home
almost 11 years ago, the University
of Texas's Blanton Museum of Art
has elevated the local arts scene
in countless, invaluable ways.
Although its touring exhibitions
bring it great acclaim, the
museum's extensive permanent
collection is a true treasure, and
now, with the extensive
renovations of its second-floor
galleries complete, that collection
has a stunning new home. Almost
twice as many works can be
displayed, and its renowned
collection of Latin American art
has its own dedicated space.
After a black-tie unveiling at the
February 11 Blanton Gala, "You
Belong Here: Reimagining the
Blanton" is open to the public. 200
