Houston's Menil Collection to Expand with Drawing Institute
"The Menil Collection—a free 30-acre neighborhood of art centers—is expanding, again, with a 30,000-square-foot Drawing Institute set to open November 3. Menil is already well worth traveling for, with its Cy Twombly Gallery, dedicated to the painter's epic multiple-panel works and sculptures; a site-specific Dan Flavin installation of fluorescent-light tubes; the Byzantine Fresco Chapel and the Rothko Chapel; and a collection of 17,000 works of prehistoric and modern art (and plenty of Picassos, Pollocks, and Duchamps)."
