The Arts Council of Fort Worth and Aurora are partnering to present New Stories: New Futures in conjunction with Fort Worth Public Art’s major installation on Pioneer Tower, curated by DooEun Choi, featuring international artists Refik Anadol and Quayola.
Lauren Cross, curator of the exhibition at the base of Pioneer Tower, selected an impressive roster of 10 North Texas artists working with a wide range of new media approaches for the art installation.

“The Arts Council, in partnership with Aurora, is excited to welcome the entire community to the Cultural District to experience the Pioneer Tower premier, alongside works of talented and diverse local and regional artists,” said Karen Wiley, president and CEO of the Arts Council of Fort Worth.
The display will be a uniquely Fort Worth art exhibition featuring the historical and modern perspectives, stories and memories from the region. Each of the artists’ pieces highlights unfamiliar and distinct narratives around the collective experiences of North Texans that are in dialogue with the video installation on Pioneer Tower.

While the art projected on all four sides of Pioneer Tower is visible across the Cultural District and beyond, visitors will want to spend time at the base of the Tower to experience the installation up-close alongside this outdoor, regional exhibition. The exhibition is free to the public, but visitors must reserve a time in advance.
