Date: Sunday, February 26 to Sunday, August 13 Time: Check https://www.mfah.org/visit/hours-and-admissions/ for museum hours Location: Museum of Fine Arts, Houston Known for his hyperrealist work, Ron Mueck once said in an interview, “I never made life-size figures because it never seemed to be interesting. We meet life-size people every day. [Altering the scale] makes you take notice in a way that you wouldn’t do with something that’s just number.” The exhibit will showcase thirteen of Mueck’s sculptures.
