Just three years ago, George Michael and Kenny Goss founded the Goss-Michael Foundation. The exhibitions they have shown (including works from their private collection as well as works from various other art institutions) have challenged boundaries and broadened mindsets on what constitutes new, exciting contemporary art (especially that of the Brits). Now, Goss-Michael has set up shop in the Design District and the Foundation wants to celebrate. Through March 15, peruse choice selections from the Goss-Michael Collection and take in the sometimes-shocking, consistently stunning art by the likes of Tim Noble and Sue Webster, Damien Hirst, Angus Fairhurst, Richard Patterson, Tracey Emin and others. The Foundation is located at 1405 Turtle Creek Blvd. Call 214-696-0555 or visit gossmichaelfoundation.org.
Tuesdays-Saturdays. Starts: Nov. 19. Continues through March 15, 2010
