Selena Forever | Siempre Selena is a photographic exhibition featuring images by Texas photographer John Dyer, capturing Selena at a pivotal moment in her rise to stardom.
On View: June 4, 2026 – January 4, 2027

This exhibition features intimate and striking photographs captured during Selena’s rise to international stardom in the early 1990s. The exhibition offers an intimate look at an artist whose talent, charisma and determination transformed Tejano music and helped redefine representation for Mexican American women in popular culture. The featured images have never been displayed together, giving new context to Dyer’s work with Selena.

More than a music icon, Selena was a groundbreaking Tejana whose story reflected the spirit of the American West itself: bold, resilient, entrepreneurial and deeply connected to culture and community. Like generations of Tejanos who helped shape Texas through perseverance, innovation and cultural pride, Selena forged her own path while carrying the traditions of her community forward. Her legacy continues to inspire new generations, embodying the pioneering spirit, creativity and determination that remain central to the story of the West.

“Selena’s story is deeply connected to the cultural pride and artistic expression that define Tejano identity,” said Jackson. “Her influence transcends music and continues to inspire audiences across generations, making her an important part of this broader cultural conversation. The exhibition shares an icon who demonstrates the lasting influence of Tejanos – and Tejanas – in Texas and beyond.

𝘚𝘦𝘭𝘧 is a group exhibition that reexamines video art at Artpace through the work of four alumni artists. Each artist investigates the complexities of identity through self-portraits, projections of the self, and the body as a means of self-representation. This exhibition explores both how individuals perceive themselves and how others might view them.

While each artist employs distinct strategies—whether through video performance, observation, reflection on physical change, or narrative experimentation—they are united in their examination of selfhood. Together, these works offer a multifaceted exploration of identity, inviting viewers to consider the many ways it is constructed, performed, and perceived.

Featured alumni artists include Alex Bag, Paul Pfieffer, Kang Seung Lee, and Anne Wallace.

“In a time of extreme individualism- a society that is obsessed with image, status, followers, brands; without mindfulness and the wisdom of not self, this becomes a constant, never enough chase. When you deeply see the emptiness, the rising and falling of thoughts and emotions, the coming and going of fads and trends, you begin to see that none of this is actually you. There is just a stream of changing phenomenon. You don't suppress your feelings, but you also don't build a wounded identity around them. This is not philosophy or a trance, it is clear seeing, mental clarity. When you see clearly, something shifts, you can still work hard, still succeed, but your motivation changes. You care more about the quality of your effort than how it reflects on your ego. You serve the task, not the ego-based self. This wisdom frees yourself from the exhausting pressure to define yourself, you're no longer trapped by other people’s opinions or your own stories.”

Albert Alvarez is an artist living and working in San Antonio, TX. He has been actively exhibiting since 2006 pursuing a style that blends Eastern and Western artistic traditions with contemporary culture. Alvarez began his pursuits with an interest in Ancient Chinese brush painting before developing a liking for master Albrecht Durer. Alvarez draws from Buddhism and his psychedelic experiences to envision his pictures and imbue his artwork with purpose and mystery from the world around him.
