The Blanton Museum of Art presents "Natalie Frank: The Brothers Grimm," an exhibition of more than 30 gouache and pastel drawings by artist Natalie Frank, a New York-based Austin native. Organized by The Drawing Center in New York, this presentation explores the nineteenth-century fairy tales of Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, including well-known stories such as Cinderella and Snow White, and more obscure tales such as The Lettuce Donkey and The Ungrateful Son. Her drawings function as a feminist reimagining of the stories. In them, Frank renders key scenes from each fairy tale, investigating the ways in which they address gender, sexuality, and complex familial dynamics. Drawing upon the history of illustrated books, figuration, and personal and political narrative, Frank’s drawings represent the largest collection of Grimm’s fairy tales ever illustrated by a fine artist.

The Blanton Museum of Art is open Tuesday through Friday 10am to 5pm, Saturday 11am to 5pm, and Sunday 1pm to 5pm. Closed on Monday.
