Dallas Contemporary

Beau Black and Stephen Dunn hosted a party at their new swank new home introducing the design community to the newest addition to the Design District - Dallas Contemporary museum is moving to 161 Glass St. Their current lease on Swiss Ave ends in 2009, and they have bought an old industrial building that is being magically renovated by the award-winning architect Edward Baum. Director Joan Davidow presented the plans with a little history of their mission and the compelling reason for a contemporary museum as well as the encyclopedic DMA. This is what excites me - it is the meeting point between art and design, and a great way to really make the district a fusion of both.
