The View from Morrison Heights

Fisher Homes is excited to present Morrison Heights, a 36-unit, custom built, luxury mid-rise condominium in Woodland Heights. Completely outfitted with high-end amenities including a fitness facility, community club room, guest suites, controlled access with security monitoring. Residents enjoy having access to the trails at white oak bayou and the views of the picturesque downtown skyline.

Terry Fisher, Owner of Fisher Homes, has been making a name for himself over the past eight years in the Houston Heights area, as one of its premier builders. He was named as a finalist for Best Developer in The Leader’s Reader’s Choice Awards for his work on Rutland Street.

It is Fisher’s goal to continue to work within the community to enhance the beauty of this great neighborhood.

Professionally, Fisher demands accountability and consistency from his team. Every member of his staff has a vested interest in each build from start to finish. What separates Fisher Homes from other builders is not only the custom finishes and features, but the overall quality of the home.

When Fisher isn’t working the community, he spends time with his wife and five children.

His oldest son has been working side by side with him over the past several summers and even assisted in the design of the mid-rise.

CALENDAR OF EVENTS JUNE MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS HOUSTON Alexander Archipenko: The Berlin Drawings May 15, 2014 - Aug 17, 2014 Beck Building, Ground Floor 5601 Main Street

CALENDAR

6

One of the most influential sculptors of the 20th century, Russian-born artist Alexander Archipenko (1887–1964) played a central role in the emergence of Modernism. Although Archipenko was known primarily for his sculpture, he also executed a number of drawings, an extraordinary group of which forms the centerpiece of this exhibition.

Alexander Archipenko: The Berlin Drawings features 30 drawings from three sketchbooks created between 1921 and 1923—when Archipenko was living, working, and teaching in Berlin, shortly before he immigrated to the United States. The exhibition also includes three of Archipenko’s sculptures, together with photographs, works on paper, and books from other artists of that time period. All are from the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

49% 5 famous attractions

The drawings, which the Museum recently acquired, depict the female figure in dynamic compositions that embrace emergent Cubist and Futurist styles, as well as Classical themes, Renaissance forms, and Art Deco fashion plates. These works of art show how Archipenko moved gracefully between traditional and modern presentations of the subject.
