.jpg) From its inception, the Tyler Museum of Art concentrated on exhibitions of 19th and 20th century art and gained recognition for its particular emphasis on the work of emerging contemporary artists from Texas and surrounding states. Texas artists James Surls and Vernon Fisher, as well as Louisiana's Clyde Connell, are prominent artists whose first museum exposure was at the Tyler Museum of Art. In recent years, exhibitions have included a greater variety of media and styles as the Museum has endeavored to more fully represent the cultural diversity and interests of the community. Recent exhibitions have ranged from 18th and 19th century British teapots from the Norwich Castle Museum in England to 16th and 17th century Dutch and Flemish paintings. Other exhibits have featured 17th century Japanese folding screens, 19th century cloisonné, landscape paintings by Midwestern artists Robert Sudlow and Keith Jacobshagen, and the ceramic works of Jun Kaneko. The duration of traveling exhibitions varies, but they are generally on display from 10 to 18 weeks. Most are free to the public. Call the Museum at (903) 595-1001 for current exhibition information.
