Trenton Doyle Hancock Commission for Cowboy's Stadium
Trenton Doyle Hancock created a site-specific installation as part of the Dallas Cowboys Stadium Art Collection. The Jones family, along with an art council of museum curators and Texas-based collectors, selected Trenton Doyle Hancock as one of seventeen innovative artists to create a new work for the stadium. The group includes nationally and internationally known artists, such as Daniel Buren, Annette Lawrence, Matthew Richie, Mel Bochner, and Olafur Eliasson.
This stadium commission, a 40-feet by 100-feet mural entitled /From a Legend to a Choir/, is a chapter of Hancock's on-going narrative. In /From a Legend to a Choir/, Hancock has created a lush field of flowers filled with an abundance of "baby mounds." Visually, the mural is a collage of images with black and white striped "mound" forms, bright flowers, ribbons of color and text, and includes the artist's self-portrait. /From a Legend to a Choir/ celebrates the promise and potential of things to come, as it is a tremendously optimistic work, celebrating life. The title refers to Hancock's first mound -- The Legend or Mound #1 and the choir of baby mounds that grow in this beautiful field. The Legend and the mound character has been a key figure in Hancock paintings and installations for nearly fifteen years...Read More
Annette Lawrence: Coin Toss, 2009
Coin Toss, was designed in response to the significant architectural statement that is the new Dallas Cowboy?s Stadium and reflects or signals the beginning of the experience of being in one of the most arresting buildings in the world.
The installation is located in the South East VIP Lobby, which is approached through glass doors. The space is 45 feet wide, 15 feet deep, and 33 feet tall. The shape of Coin Toss alludes to the promising moment at the start of a game. It references a circle flipping in space across the room. Coin Toss is overhead starting at 12 feet from the floor. The work is a circle with a diameter of 14 feet centered on the 15-foot wall. Half of the circle is on the left and the other half is on the right. The steel cablewire crosses from the top of one side to the bottom of the other creating a convex shape on one side and a concave shape on the other. There are forty-one points on each wall. As visitors pass beneath Coin Toss the work transforms itself from an interior to an exterior transparent conical form. One side completes the other.
