Museum of Western Art
Dedicated to preservation of the Old West through art
Category: Kerrville Museum in Texas
Description of this Texas Attraction: The Museum of Western Art is dedicated to preservation of the American heritage as expressed through art and artifacts that capture the spirit of individual courage, character and achievement. It is a showcase for Western art and artists, past and present, and provides art and history education for all ages, focusing on the American West.
In a manner of speaking, the museum is an architectural work of art in its own right. Its unique design was initiated by distinguished Texas architect O'Neil Ford who was renowned for establishing the guiding principles of Southwestern style architecture.
Featuring heavy timbers and rugged retaining walls of stacked limestone, the building's exterior resembles a fortressed hacienda. Heroic and life-size bronzes dot the landscape of the outer grounds. Inside the 14,000 square foot facility, boveda ceilings give visitors a glimpse of artisan work rarely seen today. Floors of end cut mesquite wood and Saltillo tile are polished to a warm glow, complementing the Western artwork displayed in the galleries. In 2004, the new Masel S. Quinn Pavilion of the Western Art Academy was completed and made ready for use in the museum's art education program.
The Museum of Western Art opened on April 23, 1983, and was first known as the Cowboy Artists of America Museum. In the years since, hundreds of thousands of visitors have walked the museum galleries and have seen the West brought to life through the artwork on display. The hardworking cowboys, the Native Americans, women of the West, settlers, mountain men and others are featured through various themed exhibits. Through other displays, the history of famous ranches as well as other diverse aspects of our Western heritage are shared with an ever-widening audience. In addition, area educators, students, writers, as well as the public make frequent use of the museum's 5,000 volume Western art and history library.
In preserving and promoting the heritage of the American West, the museum is committed to exhibiting the very finest artwork including art created by today's best known Western artists as well periodic exhibits featuring famous masters of the past. The museum's goal is to authentically represent the life of the West, in both its historic and contemporary context. This rich cultural heritage is also shared through the display of artifacts from the era, and ongoing Western art and history education programs.
Finally, in all that it does, the museum serves as a bridge between the past and the present, insuring that the legacy of the American West will be preserved for the future. We invite our guests to be part of that mission. Experience the West as it was and as it is at the Museum of Western Art. . ."where the legend lives!
