About this event

Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Virtual Realities: The Art of M.C. Escher from the Michael S. Sachs Collection, Friday, June 24, 10:30-11:30 am.

Dutchman Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898–1972), referred to as M.C. Escher, is known internationally for his self-described “mental images,” which connect to mathematics and various branches of science. Considered a “one-man art movement,” he remained outside of the art establishment. Escher was heralded in the psychedelic era of the 1960s and 1970s and is treasured today for his iconic 20th century mind-bending works. The Virtual Realities exhibit is drawn from the most extensive Escher collection in the world. Tour is for FHNN and Little Falls Village members and volunteers only and is part of a collaboration between FHNN and LFV.
