SUMMARY:Spanish Cinema Now+ "Premios Goya" | El 47
DESCRIPTION:El 47 (The 47)\, 2024 \nDirected by Marcel Barrena \nSpanish Cinema Now+ “Premios Goya” showcases contemporary Spanish cinema by screening three films recognized at the 39th Goya Awards. The series was organized by the Cultural Office of the Embassy of Spain in Washington\, DC\, the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID)\, and the Spanish Film Academy\, and is presented in Dallas by the Meadows Museum in collaboration with Dallas Film. \nSet in the late 1970s\, this film celebrates real-life bus driver Manolo Vital\, who performed an act of civil disobedience for his own working-class neighborhood. Tired of the Barcelona City Council claiming that public transportation couldn’t reach the impoverished area of Torre Baró because its streets were too narrow and unsafe\, Manolo hijacks his own bus\, “el 47\,” and reroutes it to prove the authorities wrong. El 47 received the awards for Best Film\, Best Supporting Actor\, and Best Supporting Actress at the 39th Goya Awards. \nSpain’s Institute of Cinematography and Audiovisual Arts rates this film ICAA 7+ (not recommended for audiences under seven years of age)\, but the Meadows Museum screening is intended for mature audiences only. \nCatalan and Spanish with English subtitles | 100 minutes \nSpace is limited\, register online in advance. \nFree

SUMMARY:EXHIBITION: Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Visions of Mexico
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with Roaming Mexico: Laura Wilson comes this captivating\, intimate exhibition featuring the work of the influential Mexican photographer Manuel Álvarez Bravo (1902–2002)\, one of the most important artists in 20th-century Latin America. His work captures the soul of Mexico through striking compositions that blend surrealism\, modernism\, and documentary traditions. A contemporary of luminaries such as Diego Rivera\, Frida Kahlo\, and Edward Weston\, Álvarez Bravo’s photography reflects the complexities of Mexican identity\, often juxtaposing the everyday with the enigmatic. The exhibition will feature more than 30 silver gelatin prints spanning from the 1920s to the 1980s\, drawn from both the Meadows’ own collection and those of esteemed institutions in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Together\, these images offer a compelling window into the artistic and cultural landscape of 20th-century Mexico. \nThis exhibition has been organized by the Meadows Museum and is funded by a generous gift from The Meadows Foundation. Promotional support provided by NBC 5 / Telemundo 39 and the Dallas Tourism Public Improvement District. \nTuesday-Friday 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nSaturday 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nSunday 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nThursdays until 9:00 p.m.\nMonday CLOSED\nClosed Thanksgiving Day\, Christmas Eve\, Christmas Day\, and New Year’s Day \n$12 for adults\, $10 for seniors 65 and over\, $4 for non-SMU students\, free for members\, free for youth under 18*\n*Free museum admission for youth 18 and under is made possible by a grant from Fichtenbaum Charitable Trust\, Bank of America\, N.A.\, Co-Trustee.

SUMMARY:EXHIBITION: Roaming Mexico: Laura Wilson
DESCRIPTION:For four decades\, the wilds of the American West have served as a key source of inspiration for renowned Dallas-based documentary photographer Laura Wilson (b. 1939). Her images of the people living and working “out west” (“out” meaning removed from modern American life) on ranches\, Native American reservations\, rodeos\, and rural high schools are intimate yet distant. Indeed\, as ever\, the West is populated with characters defined by their distance\, by their landscapes and lifeways that stand in sharp contrast to the familiar claustrophobia of urban and suburban America. There is\, likewise\, a kind of otherworldliness to Wilson’s West; it is a marginal (if nested) place. Her images reside “on the edge\,” to paraphrase the renowned historian of medieval art Michael Camille\, and we imagine the person behind the lens herself straddling the boundary between outsider and insider in a foreign land. \nThe challenge\, of course\, is how to define a much-mythologized American West that has forever been emphatically heterogenous\, fiercely independent\, and rife with the complexities of frontier life. For most of its history\, the West (loosely defined as the land west of the Great Plains) was\, moreover\, not part of the United States. Lines on maps made by politicians as far away culturally as they are geographically have shaped conflict and coexistence in the region for centuries. And even the most powerful lines prove permeable. For over two hundred years\, the most dramatic example of this has been the Mexico–United States border\, which extends nearly two thousand miles between the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific Ocean. No wonder that the ranchers\, fire-breathers\, and children of this liminal zone captured Wilson’s attention from her very first visit to Laredo and Nuevo Laredo in the early 1990s. \nFor Laura Wilson\, Mexico has always been a key chapter of this story. While her early published work focused on life along the Mexico–U.S. border\, this exhibition will introduce viewers to a more comprehensive if deeply personal vision of our southern neighbor. It brings together over thirty years’ worth of images documenting Wilson’s sojourns across Mexico and areas just beyond its northern border. Some work she created as recently as this year and especially for this exhibition. The nearly ninety photographs\, which will also be presented in an accompanying book\, offer a unique perspective of a multifaceted Mexico seen through Wilson’s eyes. They capture colorful festivals\, traditional farms\, and the poetry of everyday life. The viewer is therefore presented not with one Mexico—defined\, for example\, by its northern border\, its religiosity\, or rural populations—but with a nuanced\, often contradictory view of a land of dynamic contrasts. \nThis exhibition has been organized by the Meadows Museum and is funded by a generous gift from The Meadows Foundation. Promotional support provided by NBC 5 / Telemundo 39 and the Dallas Tourism Public Improvement District. \nTuesday-Friday 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nSaturday 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nSunday 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nThursdays until 9:00 p.m.\nMonday CLOSED\nClosed Thanksgiving Day\, Christmas Eve\, Christmas Day\, and New Year’s Day \n$12 for adults\, $10 for seniors 65 and over\, $4 for non-SMU students\, free for members\, free for youth under 18*\n*Free museum admission for youth 18 and under is made possible by a grant from Fichtenbaum Charitable Trust\, Bank of America\, N.A.\, Co-Trustee.
