Replete with Passion and Personal Expression

The Arlington Museum of Art is proud to present the Texas Photographic Society’s 36th Annual Members Only Show.

MOS36 debuted in January at the Buddy Holly Center in Lubbock, Texas. The show was juried by Roy Flukinger, an Independent Curator Emeritus and the former Senior Curator of the Harry Ransom Center at The University of Texas. Flukinger had the daunting responsibility of selecting 50 images by 50 artists from the hundreds of submissions from TPS member artists of all levels from across Texas and around the world. All photography-based work was encouraged including digital, silver, and alternative processes. Click here for the juror’s statement and more information about TPS.

Traditional Gallery

In this large space divided into intimate galleries (perfect for viewing the art up close), the AMA celebrates a myriad of “traditional” mediums, which we define as art forms that are an established part of a culture (such as painting, sculpture, textiles, photography, metalwork, etc.).
