Seven Sculptures at Rice University, Houston, Texas

Seven Surls sculptures to be exhibited in and around Rice...

The Rice campus will be transformed into a canvas this weekend for James Surls, an internationally recognized artist. Surls will install seven large sculptural works in and around campus near the Brochstein Pavilion, the James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy, the Jesse H. Jones Graduate School of Business and the Shepherd School of Music. The artwork will be on campus for about six months.

The exhibition, "Magnificent Seven: Houston Celebrates Surls," is presented by Rice University, the Houston Arts Alliance and the city of Houston. It is a project of the Rice Public Art Program.
