Nona and Richard Barrett’s latest donation to Dallas Museum of Art: 180 works by contemporary Texas artists.

Acquired in January, the collection is on display in the museum’s Tower Gallery through Sept. 14. Lone Star Legacy II: The Barrett Collection of Contemporary Art includes painting, sculptures, photographs and drawings from the 1970s to the present, focusing on the ’80s and ’90s.

The exhibition is a follow-up to Lone Star Legacy, which featured the Barretts’ gift of 60 pieces of earlier Texas art.
