PAST SUMMER EXHIBITIONS
MAIN GALLERY

June 4 – September 3, 2022
This summer the Pearl will be bursting with color and creativity as it showcases works of art by some of the most talented LEGO® brick artists in Houston and across the country.
No Limits: The Artistry of Bricks features more than 20 works that elevate the toy to the realm of contemporary art. Our goal is to introduce visitors to art and architecture in a language they understand, while also demonstrating the potential of imagination and the power of creativity. Some pieces in the exhibition hang on gallery walls; others are 3-dimensional and reach over 7 feet tall. Engineering, math and problem-solving all come into play to create these works of art.
Among the amazing pieces in this exhibition are:
- Chrysalis by Michael “Moto” Kanemoto, a contestant on LEGO® Masters FOX Season 2
- Battle of the Alamo by Adam Bell
- Houston by Houston Brick Club
- Mr. Tiger and Mr. Frumble’s Pickle Car, two works by Jonathan Lopes
- Rainbow Castle by Timothy Howell
- San Jacinto Monument by Robert Roche
- Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by Dr. Gregory Jonason
- BB-8 Droid by Steven Laughlin
The Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Admission is free!

After being inspired by the artistry of bricks, it’s time to build your own masterpiece!
