Arts
Christopher Blay and Christina Rees discuss the recent explosion of murals across the state. “I wonder if artists are being commissioned to beautify cities in a way that ignores the time that we live in.” See this episode's reading list here: https://glasstire.com/2021/03/27/art-dirt-the-mural-boom-in-texas/ This week’s podcast is sponsored in part by Texas Talks Art, a weekly series of virtual, lunchtime conversations with curators from Texas’ leading cultural institutions and artists from across the state. Tune in every Tuesday at noon CST for these virtual talks, which are happening throughout 2021. All talks are free and open to the public.
