San Antonio's McNay comes full circle with posthumous exhibition celebrating Texas artist Michael Tracy
Although he was born in Bellevue, Ohio, artist Michael Tracy called Texas home for decades and left deep impressions onan unsuspecting locale: the tiny border town of San Ygnacio. Best known for richly layered paintings and symbolic sculptures exploring themes of religion, ritual, immigration and sacrifice, Tracy reached the apex of his fame in the 1980s — a fruitful era punctuated by shows at the esteemed New York gallery Mary Boone and the unveiling of his pivotal 1987 exhibition “Terminal Privileges” at the Museum of Modern Art offshoot PS1.
