Making the best of my time in Houston by visiting one of my favorite art museums. (As always, click to enlarge.)
Mark di Suvero, Bygones
live oak
Barnett Newman, Broken Obelisk, for Martin Luther King, Jr.
Rothko Chapel
No photography allowed inside, but I especially appreciated Yves Klein’s Blue Rain, a few paintings by Joe Overstreet, an untitled piece by Ruth Asawa, and as always the Michael Heizer outdoor sculptures, like this one, where Ritchey used to run and chase tennis balls under the oak trees.

Thanks, Tobin, for the tips.
