Explore the Evolution of a Once Forgotten River as it Emerges
to Become One of Fort Worth’s Most Treasured Assets.
TP2 is the second in a series of exhibits hosted by Streams and Valleys designed to explore unique perspectives of the Trinity River through a variety of artistic media. Past and Present uses photography to portray the transformation of the river from a barren muddy channel into a thriving urban river.
Beginning with photographs archived from the 1940s to 1970s, locations throughout the Trinity River corridor have been recaptured on film by renowned regional photographers. The artists were encouraged to interpret the current venues from their own creative aspect. The result is a compelling narrative of the transformation of the river, as well a reflection of the diverse views of the Trinity today.
Exhibit runs September 10–December 31, 2011
