Modern Night at Philbrook

Two modern exhibits happen to coincide this month at Tulsa's Philbrook Museum of Art.

To celebrate this occasion Modern Tulsa invites you to join them for an evening at Philbrook. The event is free, you just need to RSVP to Moderntulsa.net.

A new gallery featuring selected works from the George Kravis II Collection of modern design opens September 8, 2009. The collection features items from 1900 to the present designed by iconic names in industrial design like Dreyfuss, Frankl, Geddes, Teague, Vassos and Noguchi.

Also showing in the main gallery is Auspicious Vision (Aug, 23-Nov. 29), a showcase of American Modernism paintings from the Edward Wales Root collection.
