Dallas Museum of Art

The Dallas Museum of Art (DMA) is a major art museum located in the Arts District of downtown Dallas, Texas, along Woodall Rodgers Freeway between St. Paul and Harwood. In 1984, the museum moved from its previous location in Fair Park to the Arts District.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Dallas Arts District - )〕 The new building was designed by Edward Larrabee Barnes, the 2007 winner of the American Institute of Architects Gold Medal.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Architectural Record - McGraw-Hill Construction )
The museum collection is made up of more than 24,000 objects, dating from the third millennium BC to the present day. It is also defined by its dynamic exhibition policy〔(Dallas Museum of Art )〕 and award-winning educational programs.〔(Dallas Museum of Art )〕 The Mildred R. and Frederick M. Mayer Library (the museum’s non-circulating research library) contains over 50,000 volumes available to curators and the general public.
==History==

The museum's history began with the establishment in 1903 of the Dallas Art Association, which initially exhibited paintings in the Dallas Public Library. Frank Reaugh, a Texas artist, saw in the new library the opportunity to display works of art.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Museum History )〕 This idea was championed by May Dickson Exall, who was the first president of the Dallas Public Library. Her intention was the following: “to offer art interest and education through exhibitions and lectures, to form a permanent collection, to sponsor the work of local artists, to solicit support of the arts from individuals and businesses, and to honor citizens who support the arts.”
The museum’s collections started growing from this moment on. It soon became necessary to find a new permanent home. The museum, renamed the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts in 1932, relocated to a new art deco facility within Fair Park in 1936, on the occasion of the Texas Centennial Exposition.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Default Parallels Plesk Page )〕 This new facility was designed by a consortium of Dallas architects in consultation with Paul Cret of Philadelphia. It is still possible to visit this building.
In 1943, Jerry Bywaters became the director of the museum, a position he held for the next twenty-one years.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BYWATERS, WILLIAMSON GERALD () )〕 Artist, art critic, and teacher, Bywaters gave a sense of identity and community to the museum.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Meadows Museum at Southern Methodist University, Dallas, Texas: Exhibitions )〕 Under Bywaters' tenure, impressionist, abstract, and contemporary masterpieces were acquired and the Texas identity of the museum was emphasized. This identity is today represented by works by Alexandre Hogue, Olin Herman Travis, Bywaters himself, and others.
In 1963, the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts merged with the Dallas Museum of Contemporary Art,〔http://dallasmuseumofart.org/idc/groups/public/documents/web_content/dma_295634.pdf〕 whose director for the previous four years had been Douglas MacAgy. In 1964 Merrill C. Rueppel became the director of the newly merged Museum. The permanent collections of the two museums were then housed within the DMFA facility, suddenly holding significant works by Paul Gauguin, Odilon Redon, Henri Matisse, Piet Mondrian, Gerald Murphy, and Francis Bacon. In 1965, the museum held an exhibition called ''The Art of Piet Mondrian'' and one entitled ''Sculpture: Twentieth Century''.〔
By the late 1970s, the greatly enlarged permanent collection and the ambitious exhibition program fostered a need for a new museum facility. Under Harry Parker’s direction, the museum was able to move once again, to its current venue, at the northern edge of the city’s business district (the now designated Dallas Arts District). The $54 million facility, designed by New York architect Edward Larrabee Barnes, was financed by a 1979 City bond election, together with private donations. The project was galvanized by the slogan “A Great City Deserves a Great Museum,” and the new building opened in January 1984.〔(Dallas Museum of Art )〕
