Nasher Sculpture Center

The Nasher Sculpture Center is located in the heart of the Dallas Arts District, between Olive and Harwood, one block south of Woodall Rodgers, adjacent to the Dallas Museum of Art. Its mission is to be an international focal point and catalyst for the study, installation, conservation, and appreciation of modern and contemporary sculpture.

The Nasher Sculpture Center includes both an indoor gallery and an outdoor garden which were designed and constructed to flow seemlessly into each other. It features a regularly changing selection of works from the Raymond and Patsy Nasher Collection, which demonstrates considerable balance between early modern works and art of the postwar period, abstraction and figuration, monumental outdoor and more intimately scaled indoor works, and the many different materials used in the production of modern art. Perhaps its single most distinguishing feature, however, is the depth with which it represents certain key artists, including Matisse (with eleven sculptures), Picasso (seven), Smith (eight), Raymond Duchamp-Villon (seven), Moore (eight), Miró (four), and Giacometti (thirteen). Such well-rounded perspectives on the development of these masters provide, in effect, a series of mini-retrospectives within the Collection’s overall historical spectrum.
