Featured Rotating Current Exhibits
- The Selena Effect:
Three decades after her death, singer Selena Quintanilla Pérez’s light burns brighter than ever. Her Grammy-winning musical achievements with her family band Los Dinos supercharged Tejano music in the early 1990s. But that fabled musical journey is eclipsed by Selena’s impact as a cultural touchstone, inspirational story, tragic figure and pop icon. The Selena Effect celebrates Selena’s enduring appeal and relevance to future generations with photographs by her former publicist, music historian Ramon Hernández, renowned photographers Al Rendon, John Dyer, Scott Newton and Sylvia Reyes; art pieces by David Zamora Casas, Marc Burckhardt and Sara Hickman; and original Selena fashion sketches, outfits, fashion accessories and a diary from her close friend and fashion designer Martin Gomez. Many items on display for the first time. The Wittliff Collections is a renowned resource for Selena related research for television series, books, news programs and film documentaries, most notably utilizing the Ramon Hernandez Tejano and Conjunto Music Collection, the Patoski Collection for the Selena Quintanilla Biography, the Texas Monthly Collection and the Doug Hanners Collection.
