There is an oasis from the musty-smelling air grates and urine-soaked corners of downtown. A place where the grass is always greener, the sunlight is diffused, the honking traffic is muffled and water runs clean and cigarette butt-free. Even ink... More >

By Alex Copeland | Thu, October 06, 2011

To many people, sculpture and design are static, silent fields of art. Nick Cave’s performance art, however, is not. Half fashion show, half dance recital, Cave brings his so-called Soundsuits to life with movement. The suits are densely construct... More >

This place is definitely my most frequent place to visit. It has special events that spark my creativity. Great place to just hang out during lunch or for a cup of coffee while enjoying the exhibit.

While there is a great permanent collection inside, some of the more memorable pieces are outside. This is not a big deal most of the year, but between June and August, it's just too hot to truly enjoy. Nevertheless, this is a great place to visit. They even have a Nasher Museum shop at the NorthPark mall, across from Barney's, more or less.
