Thomas Veillon: A Lasting Tradition

Café Arts Series for local artists

On view August 1 - October 27, 2024

The late summer 2024 Café Arts exhibition will feature recent paintings by artist Thomas “Tom” Veillon. This will be Veillon’s first solo exhibition at the Art Museum of Southeast Texas. This exhibition will feature acrylic paintings, since the medium dries quickly and allows for easily building up layers of texture and color. This series of works draws heavily from Aurignacian and Salutrean era cave paintings as well as literary, mythological and film references, narrating human history through present day.

AMSET is an accredited museum with the American Alliance of Museums.
