Photos of the rooms as well as pricing can be found on Hôtel St. Germain’s official Web site. The hotel boasts two parlors, two dining rooms, and a New Orleans-style outdoor courtyard. A Champagne Bar is available in the sitting area. The combination of bubbly and foie gras set against an elegant, candlelit parlor backdrop “is capable of making Dallas feel like Paris” — Frommer’s.

MADI Museum & Gallery
Address: 3109 Carlisle Street, Dallas, TX 75204 Peter Frank of LA Weekly asserts: “Not since the Museum of non-Objective Art in New York morphed into the Guggenheim Museum more than half a century ago has there been anything like this in North America.” Quite a statement! Frank is referring to the MADI Museum in Uptown Dallas — the first gallery devoted solely to MADI art. What is MADI art, you may ask? Good question. No one really knows the origin of its name, but, in short, MADI is an avant-garde movement founded by Carmelo Arden Quin in the 1940’s in Argentina. The art form resembles Cubism: lots of bright colors and geometric design. (Just take a look at the museum exterior and you’ll get the picture!) And, who would have thought that the MADI building also houses a law practice? Indeed, it does. Attorney Bill Masterson, the museum’s founder and MADI enthusiast (clearly!), is also president of Kilgore & Kilgore law firm. All of you modernists: be sure to check this one out!

In 1972, Peters opened his first gallery in Santa Fe and has since opened two additional spaces: one in New York and the other in Uptown Dallas. The Dallas venue was established in 1986 and, in the late-90’s, Edmund P. Pillsbury — former director of Fort Worth’s Kimbell Art Museum — teamed up with Peters. The alliance lasted four years and resulted in, unequivocally, one of Dallas’ finest galleries. The 10,000-square-foot Uptown location boasts an indoor viewing area, atrium, and sculpture garden. Exhibits feature 19th- and 20th-century European pieces, including works by masters such as Picasso, Matisse, and Segal. Other mentions: Share your review in the comments section!
