Mr. Fisher earned his MFA from the University of Illinois. He has worked as Regents Professor of Art at the University of North Texas, Denton, for the last 28 years. His works are owned by many prestigious art institutions including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, New York; the Art Institute of Chicago; the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, the Dallas Museum of Art, and many others.
“The Artist’s Eye” is an ongoing program moderated by Kimbell staff. It brings Texas artists to the Museum to discuss works in the permanent collection, share the special insights of the practicing professional, and relate older art to contemporary artistic concerns, including their own.
