Where: The University of Texas at Austin, Fine Arts Library, DFA 3.200.

Background: From October 2 – 30, members of the Austin architecture and design community will display their creations alongside the permanent art collection of the Fine Arts Library (FAL) in the exhibit More Than Architecture.

This exhibit is a cooperative venture of the FAL with a group of local small-firm architects as part of the Austin x Design month-long celebration of design in the built and natural worlds.  It provides the architecture and design community an opportunity to show off its artistic side, and for artists to exhibit their site-specific works in photographic form.

Artists participating in the show include:

  • Lisa Orr, with her design for the Deep Eddy mural
  • Sculptor Lars Stanley
  • Artist Tim Kerr
  • Designer Davey McEathron of ¡El Grupo!

Items in the exhibit include sculpture (large and small), house model, photographs, furniture, glass, paintings, and decorative pieces, with 40 works from over 20 designers and artists.
