Jasper Johns, Cy Twombly, Robert Rauschenburg. What do these famous artists have in common? How about the fact that these men owe a great deal to the German –born artist Kurt Schwitters.

The 2010 State Fair of Texas is a little over a week old with less than two more weeks to go. It’s about time you bought a corny dog and checked out some art, specifically sculpture. Fair Park has been sprinkled with sculptures made of metal, mosaic tiles, bronze, wood and ceramic. The sculptures are mostly located all along the walk ways nearest the main entrance and lagoon.
