Aye Eye Aye: The Eye Ball at Dallas’s Eyeball
Tony Tasset’s 30-foot-tall eyeball provided a dramatic backdrop for Dallas’s annual Eye Ball, held to coincide with the Dallas Art Fair (DAF) on April 8. The party, thrown by Headington Companies, was Mexican themed, complete with a make-your-own margarita bar, piñatas, vibrantly colored flowers, and Dia de Los Muertos-inspired performers, including a skull-headed figure on stilts.
Leading lights of the Dallas art world were in attendance, including DAF co-founder John Sughrue, Dallas Contemporary curator Justine Ludwig, Dallas Museum of Art contemporary art curator Gavin Delahunty, artist Arthur Peña, and Joyce Goss of the Goss-Michael Foundation.
