“Something that stands out to me is the humor and sense of play in Lichtenstein’s work,” shares Nasher Gallery Educator Melissa Gonzales.✨

Co-presented with the Dallas Museum of Art, ‘Roy Lichtenstein in the Studio’ showcases the unexpected inspiration and experimental process of the Pop artist as he moved from one medium to the next.

On view through October 24, 2026.

Take a behind-the-scenes look at our upcoming Nasher Public exhibition👀

These photos capture the making of Dallas-based artist Narong Tintamusik’s installation for his Nasher Public exhibition, titled ‘Residue.’ Using copper and brass metal mesh as a kind of textile, Tintamusik combines Thai weaving and dying techniques with basketry and enameling traditions that he learned at craft schools in Tennessee and Colorado.

The colorful surface of the metal is patinated with the acid from Thai food ingredients like coconut milk, lime juice, fish sauce, and shrimp paste, then left exposed to light and weather over several months in Tintamusik’s backyard, imbuing the material with energy from the food and the sun. Sounds from the artist’s working process are incorporated into an original exhibition score by composer Saun Santipreecha.

‘Nasher Public: Narong Tintamusik’ is on view beginning May 30, 2026.

♊️Gemini season is here–and we are seeing double!👀

Nic Nicosia's 2018 sculpture, 'the twins,' features two generic, human-like figures. Each raises its left hand, pointing towards the other-but is it in recognition, accusation, or indication? Their expressions–either stoic or bemused, but equally inscrutable with eyes closed or perhaps barely open–further complicate the reading of the gesture and the relationship between the two.

'the twins' is on view at the Nasher as part of 'Nic Nicosia: Everyday Surreal,' on view through August 16, 2026.

NOW OPEN: 'Nic Nicosia: Everyday Surreal'🌀

This exhibition is a survey of the last 25 years of the artist's five-decade career that reveals the material and conceptual evolution of one of the city's most important living artists. With a fresh focus on his turn to sculpture in the 2010s, the exhibition will feature over 70 three-dimensional works, drawings, photographs, and films made since his mid-career survey in 1999-2000, in an installation evocative of the subtly surreal environments conceived in the artist's work.

On view through August 16, 2026.

'The Guardian' (2022) by Tatiana Trouvé depicts a Thonet-style chair holding a radio/cassette player, a shell, and a cigarette carton with the butt of one in an alligator clip.

Peaking from the top of the large bag are a crumpled drink can, a lighter, a partially eaten apple, and three books: a biography of the Renaissance painter Artemisia Gentileschi; "La passe imaginaire," the published correspondence between writer and editor Jean-Luc Hennig and Grisélidis Réal, a s*x worker, writer, and activist for prostitutes; and "Lilith," whose title refers to the figure of Mesopotamian and Judaic mythology often vilified as a temptress, demon, and the failed first wife of Adam or, in contemporary culture, revered as a woman fighting for equality and fairness.

This body of work was inspired by Trouvé's experience, decades ago, as a gallery guard at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, watching over the art and, in case of emergency, leaving a book on her chair as a sign of life in the room.
