Target Texas is a biennial of Texas artists organized by the AMST Curator of Exhibitions, Deborah Fullerton. This exhibition brings six artists from across the state, a place as big as many countries, to answerthe question, “What inspires the contemporary artists of Texas?” Artists here have an incredible variety of inspirations rooted in the distinctness of each region, and choose to depict a broad array of messages through a range of mediums. What inspires each artist depends upon a lifetime of experiences such as storytelling, family, nature, current events, and urban issues. This edition of Target Texas includes Sedrick Huckaby of Fort Worth, Teresa Ruiz of Corpus Christi, Rigoberto Gonzalez of McAllen, Barbra Riley of Canyon Lake, Sarah Williams of Houston, and Elizabeth Payne of Yoakum. An accompanying full-color catalogue will be available in the Gift Shop.                                                                           Sarah Williams, Gentry Drive, 2017Oil on board, 24 in. x 18 in.Courtesy of the artist and Moody Gallery, Houston, Texas
