Nasher Sculpture Center

Located next to the Dallas Museum of Art, this outstanding 55,000-square-foot facility, designed by renowned architect Renzo Piano in collaboration with landscape architect Peter Walker in 2003, was created to showcase the private sculpture collection of real estate developer Raymond Nasher and his wife Nancy. The collection is regarded as one of the most extraordinary assemblages of modern and contemporary sculptures in the world, with more than 300 significant works of art from masters such as Rodin, Brancusi, Matisse, Picasso, Koons, Calder and Miró. In addition to the indoor gallery, there is a lush 1.4-acre outdoor garden featuring pieces by Willem de Kooning, Mark di Suvero and Pablo Picasso, among others.
