The Briscoe Western Art Museum presents selections from its collection of nearly 600 stereographs of the city of San Antonio from the 1860s to 1930s in its Fall exhibition "Destino San Antonio." This experiential exhibition is inspired by the structure of the stereograph - a picture composed of two superposed images that give a three-dimensional effect when viewed with a stereoscope or special glasses. Artist and guest curator Ann Wallace integrates maps, video, personal accounts, and arcade-style 3-D viewers to explore a period of profound transition after the Civil War until the final days of the great Texas “frontier.”
