Beautiful Boy

"A test of an actor is playing someone who's split in so many ways that he moves forward while looking backwards and vice versa, and Chalamet is already a master." David Edelstein, New York Magazine/Vulture. Based on the best-selling pair of memoirs from father and son David and Nic Sheff (Steve Carrell and Timothée Chalamet), Beautiful Boy chronicles the heartbreaking and inspiring experience of survival, relapse, and recovery in a family coping with addiction over many years.

CLEAN SLATE, 2018 by KAWS

Director Marla Price is pleased to announce the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth’s acquisition of a monumental bronze sculpture by KAWS. The work will be on view to the public beginning December 9, 2018. 

In CLEAN SLATE, 2018, the central figure strides forward, embracing smaller, childlike figures in each arm, a gesture recognizable to anyone who has found themselves in the company of two tired toddlers. Featuring KAWS’s iconic COMPANION characters, the bronze sculpture stands 21 feet tall and overlooks the museum pond.
