Exhibitions

I was a student @ the Reeder School of Theatre & Design and only tonight learned of the Exhibition! Later I sat as a subject for Dickson and studied privately under Flora while I was a student @ TCU. I have a portrait and also an artist’s proof of one of Dickson’s lithographs which I will always treasure but would be willing to loan should there be a future exhibition.
If there is a booklet which I could purchase, please let me know as I live in Amarillo and it is not likely that I could come for one of Diane Simons presentations - though I would love to see her since I haven’t since we were classmates @ TCU.
My love for the arts and the stage were inspired and nurtured by Dick and Flora - just like it was for many of the people in Ft Worth - and I truly feel that is why Ft Worth has for the last 50 years been so much stronger in the arts than the city to the East! Because they saw to it that we had outstanding instruction in art, ballet, fencing and drama. Our costumes were made of the finest materials. The Reeder School was 2nd only to King Coit Children’s Theatre School in New York City! Our sets on the Little Theatre Stage @ TCU were 2 story, modeled after the Elizabethan ones at the Globe Theatre in Shakespeare’s England. And before they were ever built, we made minature ones in art class under Dickson’s tutelage!
Thank you, Carter Museum, for showing Fort Worth one of the many reasons that Fort Worth shines like a gem not just in Texas, but in the U.S.!

hi guys

Unfortunately I missed this exhibit but would really like to know more about this group of artist. Does the museum have any information on hand or can you make literature recommendations? I wish to learn more about the artist. Who were they and bio information. Thank you, Judy

The University of Texas at Austin College of Fine Arts Department of Art and Art History sponsored a one-man exhibit of the artwork of Kelly Fearing, one of its stellar alumni, and a member of the Fort Worth Circle, in 2002, at Flatbed Press in east Austin. The title of the exhibition was: “The Mystical World of Kelly Fearing: A Sixty-Year Retrospective” A beautiful catalogue of the exhibition resulted. If it does not already have one on file, the Amon Carter curatorial staff may wish to consider contacting Flatbed Press for a copy at:
