The new MFAH curator of contemporary art, Brittany Webb, talks with Danielle Burns Wilson and Harrison Guy. The conversation connects two current exhibitions—Peter Bradley and "The De Luxe Show" and Art, Place, and Power: Project Row Houses in Houston's Third Ward—highlighting historical arts practices that remade the local landscape for creative communities and institutions. Among the topics considered are the history of artists and arts administrators working in conjunction with one another in ways that aren't always visible to the public; how art-making informs institution and community building; and seeing that continued legacy at Project Row Houses and the DeLUXE Theater.
