Kick off your contemporary art experience by joining our tour of the AT&T Stadium, home to the Dallas Cowboys and a world-class collection of contemporary art. This unique docent-led tour of the Dallas Cowboys Art Collection brings you face-to-face with works by famous artists: Mel Bochner, Matthew Ritchie, Olafur Eliasson, Annette Lawrence, Lawrence Weiner, Anish Kapoor, Jenny Holzer, and many others who celebrate and challenge the culture of celebrity sports in our present-day society.
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and his family hired an art advisor to form an advisory council of curators and cultural leaders from the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Together, they selected paintings, sculptures, photographs, and digital media, including sixteen commissioned works of art, to make up this collection. See the two largest pieces in the stadium, each covering nearly 4,000 square feet of wall space: an untitled relief by Jim Isermann and From a Legend to a Choir by Trenton Doyle Hancock. The Art Ambassador for the Dallas Cowboys, Phil Whitfield, who worked closely on site with the artists during their installations, will lead this tour.
