A MUSEUM-WORTHY COLLECTION ART + PRESERVATION
Stanchions? You won’t find them here. We believe that art is best when shared, so prized pieces from our proprietor Tim Headington’s art collection brighten public spaces throughout The Joule.
the art collection
Engines encrusted in blue crystals, rescued mosaics, a larger-than-life calendar… Our blue chip collection features works by prominent contemporary artists, including Andy Warhol, Mungo Thomson, Roger Hiorns, Tony Tassett, and Ellsworth Kelly.
preservation at the joule
The Joule champions the future while honoring the past. You won’t find a better example of this than the mid-century glass mosaics that were rescued, restored, and now hold a prominent space in the hotel art collection alongside contemporary artwork.
the eye
Tony Tasset’s larger-than-life optic sculpture, Eye, has become one of the most iconic photo ops on Main Street. There’s fact and a whole lot of fiction about its origins.
gallery hopping
Explore the Dallas outpost of the internationally acclaimed gallery, Various Small Fires (VSF) adjacent to The Joule on the Commerce Street-side of the lobby. Along with its sister locations in Los Angeles and Seoul, the gallery drives founder Esther Kim Varet’s vision to champion fine art without bias against age, medium or market viability.
