Lunch Learning Session: Philip Henderson/Behind the Scenes of the Dilbeck Exhibition

The current exhibition at AD EX is Evolving a Personal Style: The Architecture of Charles Dilbeck. Dilbeck (1907-1990) is one of Dallas’ most iconic architects. Combining signature elements of French Norman and Ranch styles through variations, symmetry, and asymmetry, he developed a personal architectural style that is instantly recognizable in his works in Dallas and other cities such as Tulsa. The exhibition  employs large-scale photography highlighting a variety of buildings throughout the region to illustrate the common themes running through these unique structures.

Philip Henderson, FAIA, organized and curated the exhibition. Join him for a tour through the exhibition as he discusses Dilbeck and how he and the other organizers wanted to present the work of this eclectic designer.

Bring your lunch and we’ll gather at 11:30 a.m. Philip’s tour and discussion will begin at noon. The event is free and open to the public. To RSVP, send an e-mail to info@DallasADEX.org. Please include LLS: Philip Henderson in the subject line.
