Desc: The Perilous Texas Adventures of Mark Dion: Directed by Erik Clapp. With Mark Dion. Artist Mark Dion retraces the footsteps of several 19th-century explorers in Texas, collecting materials to form a site-specific exhibition for the Amon Carter Museum of American Art. Over the course of two years, Dion followed in the footsteps of four explorers, including ornithologist and artist John James Audubon, watercolorist Sarah Ann Lillie Hardinge, architect Frederick Law Olmsted, and botanist Charles Wright. During his travels, Dion visited four distinct areas of Texas, including the Gulf Coast, West Texas, King Ranch and Austin, and San Antonio. The result of his adventures will be an immersive exhibition created by Dion coupled with works on paper, paintings, and archival materials from the Carter's collection.
