The Dallas Museum of Art today announced the acquisition of Equilibres, a series of 82 photographs by Peter Fischli and David Weiss. The European artists, described by ARTNews as "indisputably the best thing in Swiss art since Alberto Giacometti," have been collaborating for almost 30 years and work across a wide range of media, including sculpture, installation, film and photography.

On view from November 9, 2007, through March 30, 2008, Phil Collins: the world won’t listen is curated by Suzanne Weaver, the Museum’s Nancy and Tim Hanley Associate Curator of Contemporary Art. The exhibition will debut as an expanded presentation of Concentrations, a special DMA series of project-based solo exhibitions by international emerging artists.

The Dallas Museum of Art is proud to announce the acquisition and installation of Mark Handforth’s contemporary sculpture Dallas Snake as part of Concentrations, an ongoing exhibition series that recognizes the critical and challenging work of emerging international contemporary artists.

From the Ashes of Vesuvius, In Stabiano: Exploring the Ancient Seaside Villas of the Roman Elite will open at the Dallas Museum of Art with a stunning collection of archaeological objects from the ancient Roman site of Stabiae (modern Castellammare di Stabia), including the various living areas of an upscale Roman villa. The exhibit— which premiered at the Smithsonian before traveling to other U.S. cities— will be on display in the J. E. R. Chilton Galleries through October 7.

The Dallas Museum of Art has announced it will host the largest and most comprehensive retrospective ever presented in the United States of the career of J. M. W.

Chilton Galleries in February of 2008, and will be the only U.S. showing south of the Mason-Dixon line.
