This exhibition brings together works from the individual creative careers of Jayne Lawrence and Leigh Anne Lester and a variety of materials that reference their collaborative endeavors in cactusBRA and cactusBARN, the influential galleries they founded in San Antonio. While pursuing unique themes and perspectives, Lawrence and Lester bring critical attention to the possibilities of imagination to transform expectations that structure standard knowledge systems. Lester’s works often have a foundation in considerations of the natural world whereas Lawrence’s works often develop in consideration of challenges to narratives that influence subjectivity and social engagement. The exhibition features mixed-media two- and three-dimensional works and installation.

Fronterizx: Art by M. Jenea Sanchez and Gabriela Muñoz with Jenelle Esparza focuses on twenty-first century shared and socially-engaged art practices. This exhibition features work created by the Fronterizx Collective founded by Sanchez and Muñoz during their first collaboration in 2009 on the Arizona/Mexico borderline in a project titled La Tapiz Fronteriza de La Virgen de Guadalupe and includes contemporary artworks such as the video Caldo de Pollo and the photographic series Living Altar. In addition, this exhibition features a new collaborative project between Esparza and Fronterizx. This is the first exhibition in Texas of the Fronterizx Collective, as well as the artists’ first collaboration with San Antonio-based artist Jenelle Esparza.

Fronterizx Collective is driven by the artists’ lived experiences as women of color working in the interstitial space of the U.S.-Mexico borderlands. Fronterizx is committed to the representation and implication of brown female bodies from their own lived experiences situated within the Sonora and Chihuahua desert ecologies. Their projects, installations, and exhibitions have appeared on the U.S.-Mexico borderline and museums including the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Wheelwright Museum, and Museo de Arte de Ciudad Juárez, Mexico. In 2023 they were awarded the Arlene and Morton Scult Artist Award by the Phoenix Art Museum and a 2024 USA Artist Fellowship. 

Sanchez was born and raised in the Arizona and Sonora frontera and Muñoz migrated through the U.S.-Mexico borderlands to Phoenix. Esparza is a Corpus Christi and South Texas native. Esparza, Sanchez, and Muñoz were introduced as recipients of the 2024 US Latinx Fellowship.

The San Antonio Art League + Museum (SAAL+M) proudly presents Texas Legacy: Hidden Gems from the Collection, a rare opportunity to rediscover paintings and sculptures from the museum’s permanent collection that have not been publicly exhibited in decades. Spanning more than twelve decades of Texas art, the exhibition offers a compelling and sometimes surprising portrait of the state’s evolving creative spirit.

From early regional landscapes and representational works to bold experiments in abstraction and form, Texas Legacy reveals the wide range of artistic responses to Texas life, culture, and identity. Alongside more traditional subjects, the exhibition includes works that challenged conventions of their time—paintings that stirred debate or explored unusual and unexpected subject matter. These pieces reflect moments when artists pushed boundaries, questioned norms, or responded to social and cultural tensions through their work.
By bringing these hidden treasures back into public view, Texas Legacy: Hidden Gems from the Collection invites visitors to reflect on the importance of preservation, the value of rediscovery, and the enduring relevance of art that continues to resonate across generations.

HOURS: Tue-Sat, 10 am to 3 pm. Closed Sun & Mon
