The Medieval Meditations of Benjamin Dominguez
|

Magical realism, human relationships and sado-masochism are just a few of the themes explored in The Medieval Meditations of Benjamin Domínguez at the Brownsville Museum of Fine Art through January 9.
Born in Jiménez, Chihuahua, in 1942, Benjamin Domínguez is famous for applying Renaissance painting techniques to a fascinating and startling concoction of contemporary subjects. His paintings, which have been exhibited around the world, depict a largely optimistic worldview colored by the darker realities of the present age.
“South Texas has an opportunity to showcase the work of one of Mexico’s greatest living artists,” said Barry Horn, the Museum’s executive director. “The theme of recalled dreams will challenge viewers to explore their own subconscious.”
The Museum will premier fifteen new paintings as well as Dominguez’ famous Arnolfini Series of 1985. The Arnolfini Series was inspired by the iconic image of artist Jan Van Eyck’s Giovanni Arnolfini and His Bride (double portrait, painted in 1434).
The exhibition is made possible by partnership with the Brownsville Museum of Fine Art, the Secretaria de Relaciones Exteriores, the City of Brownsville and the Mexican Consulate of Brownsville.

BMFA Establishes Memorial Fund to Honor Late Director
|
|
| |

Contact: Will Everett 956-542-0941 will.everett@brownsvillemfa.org

The Brownsville Museum of Fine Art has created a memorial fund to honor the legacy of its late executive director, Barry T. Horn, who died this October 23, 2009.
The memorial fund, which will be administered by the museum, will support a public art program throughout the City of Brownsville. The fund will encourage the installation of artwork in a wide range of public locations.
The fund will support projects that promote a culture of creativity and encourage new and emerging artists. Such projects will serve as visual reminders of Horn’s life-long desire to make art relevant and accessible to all people.
“Barry strongly believed that art should be available to all,” said Eddie Knebel, board president. “The Museum has the opportunity to perpetuate Barry’s legacy through an endowment that will bear his name and honor his ideals.”
The memorial fund was created at a meeting on Tuesday of the museum’s Board of Trustees. George Ramirez, owner of Polibrid Coatings, attended the meeting and presented a $10,000 check to the museum to be used by the fund.
“I want this contribution to serve as a challenge to everyone who believes in Barry’s vision for the arts in Brownsville,” Ramirez said. “The recent city budget issues have created divisiveness among cultural organizations here. We need to stand together during this tragic time.”
Ramirez also serves as president of the Brownsville Society for the Performing Arts.
To contribute to the memorial fund in honor of Barry T. Horn, contact Linda Marin, Interim Executive Director, at (956) 542-0941.
