Summer Salon: Houston Founders & Texas Modernism On view July 29 - August 28, 2021 Every summer we look forward to bringing you a curated selection of some of our best secondary market works in our Summer Salon Exhibition. This year, the gallery is presenting 100 incredible works by Houston Founders: David Adickes, Jack Boynton, Bill Condon, Frank Dolejska, Henri Gadbois, Frank Freed, Dorothy Hood, Leila McConnell, Robert Morris, Charles Pebworth, Robert Preusser, Charles Schorre, Richard Stout, Dan R. Stewart, Stella Sullivan, and Dick Wray; and other Texas Modernists, such as Ben Culwell, Mary Frances Doyle, William Lester, Bill Reily, Emily Rutland, and McKie Trotter.

Additionally, on view is a selection of works by the late Dr. Robert Rogan from the artist's estate. A noted modernist artist, Rogan was head of the Art Department at Lamar University in Beaumont from 1961 to 1990 when he retired, where he influenced generations of students. The works included range widely from his early, regionalist paintings to his mid-century cubist-inspired compositions and later works.

The gallery is also featuring a selection of rare publications from The Blotter Press, from the Estate of Dr. Robert Rogan, which originated in 1962 during his tenure at Lamar. These handmade, letterpress, and silk-screened books were produced in limited, small edition publications under the direction of Myrtle Kerr, as Associate Professor of Art at Lamar from 1962 - 1966; and later as Supervisor of Art at Louisiana State, starting in 1966. The detail and beauty of each book is a true revelation of this historic, creative enterprise started by college students. Each book is a jewel, and, remarkably, there are 22 different works on display for your perusal and enjoyment. Please contact us for more information on the available publications, or if you like to make an appointment to view these in person.
