On View: May 30 - August 23, 2026
Reception: August 7, 2026 | 5:00pm to 7:00pm

The Art Museum of Southeast Texas is pleased to present Brandon Gouthier: Lipstick and Grease as its summer 2026 Café Arts exhibition.
This exhibition includes a small selection of photographs from 2005 to 2021 documenting Texas and Nevada vintage car and motorcycle culture. He would like to dedicate this exhibition to his father, who recently passed away, and was the source of not only his love of car and bike culture, but also taught him that honor, passion and work ethic are foundational to a life well-lived.
