  • Perry House: 30 Years of Arresting Landscapes and Counting

    Perry House: 30 Years of Arresting Landscapes and Counting

    By Meredith Deliso | Thu, June 14, 2012

    Perry House is all about opposites -- he strives to create images that are beautiful and disturbing, about construction and destruction, that walk the line between "horror and humor," as he says, bor... More »

    ''Eighth Annual Open Call Exhibition: GOD''

    By Jef With One F | Thu, June 14, 2012

    Getting your art shown in a museum is never easier than at the Art Car Museum’s annual open-call show. The museum sets a theme (this year it’s God) and selects a featured artist. Then the first 125 people offering pieces following the theme get... More »

    ''Perry House: Elegance/Violence''

    By Steve Jansen | Thu, May 31, 2012

    Putting together a quarter-century’s worth of work by a single artist on a gallery wall allows viewers to see the way that artist has grown over the years, the way his style has changed, his focus shifted. That’s true for “Perry House:... More »

  • 2006 | Best Art-Opening Cocktails

    The Press conducted a lot of research for this category (see "Free Booze," December 1), and we've got to hand it to the freewheelin' spirits at the Art Car Museum for running away with the prize. Of course, they don't really serve up cocktails per se; rather, a couple of kegs are tapped and bottles of wine are just left out on the table. No gatekeeper. No drink tickets. No little plastic cups. Just tons of booze and plenty of good times. It's like you're at a house party, but the artwork on... More »

  • 2002 | Best Place to Take Out-of-Towners

    With its gleaming silver spindles, strips of barbed wire surrounding the front door and a big red "look over here" star affixed to its roof, the Art Car Museum is hardly the staid sort of building that pops into one's mind at the mention of the word museum. But its collected set of beautiful art cars is uniquely Houston, and a perfect place to take guests who associate this city with only Enron. Not that it's just an art car collection.
