Catherine Fitzgerald Eckels's Company Details
The Menil Collection is a museum and neighborhood of art spanning 30 acres in the heart of Houston, Texas.The main gallery building anchors the campus and is surrounded by four additional museum buildings: the Menil Drawing Institute; Cy Twombly Gallery; Richmond Hall, which features an installation by artist Dan Flavin; and the Byzantine Fresco Chapel.Making art accessible is vital to the Menil's mission; no admission is charged and public programs are free. All of the Menil's campus buildings are entered at ground level, symbolic of its democratic ideals. The Menil's philosophy is to foster each visitor's direct, personal encounter with works in the collection.
