Visit the Meadows Museum, SMU, to see TWO exciting photography exhibitions this fall!
On view September 14, 2025–January 11, 2026
Roaming Mexico: Laura Wilson
Capturing the unique culture, grit, joy, and humanity of Mexico and the Texas border, this exhibition of nearly 90 photographs—most never before published—by celebrated photographer Laura Wilson includes intimate portrayals of village life, popular festivals, cowboys, fire-breathers, and captivating portraits. Through her lens, Wilson reveals personal insights into the country that has inspired her for four decades.
Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Visions of Mexico
In a counterpoint to Wilson’s contemporary photography, the Meadows presents more than 30 silver gelatin prints by influential Mexican photographer Manuel Álvarez Bravo (1902–2002). Characterized by striking compositions that draw from surrealist, modernist, and documentary traditions, Álvarez Bravo’s work draws viewers into a Mexico where the everyday and the enigmatic exist side by side.
