George Dahl

George Dahl, a visionary, was one of the forefathers of architecture and design and set in motion changes in architecture that are still admired and revered today. His avant-garde approach to design ignited a flame that lit the way for other architects and designers to follow.

Although Dahl was a career architect, he was first a passionate artist. His family uncovered numerous treasures of artistic significance. The historical importance of these works propelled his family to offer the public a rare opportunity to own a piece of the past. Each of his works is unique and exquisite. Just as George Dahl breathed life into his work by the attention to detail, that same level of quality in reproducing these works has been maintained. Each limited edition print is reproduced on Arches quality paper using the Giclee printing process to ensure that each print is museum quality.

It is rare that a collection such as this is still intact. Just as a fine gallery is limited to what it can display, we can only now show you a fraction of the total collection. In the future, we will selectively offer other works in the collection to further enhance the memory of our grandfather.

Dahl, The Artist

A first generation American, George L. Dahl was born in Minnesota in 1894. Throughout his life he met challenges head on and consequently became one of the top architects and community leaders in the 20th century. As a talented young man attending Harvard University in 1923 he was awarded the prestigious Nelson Robertson Fellowship. For the next two years he traveled through out Europe studying architecture and painting. As a result we have an incredible collection of watercolors that were produced during his travels. 

Upon his return he became involved in planning the University of Texas campus and soon after was named the chief architect for the Texas Centennial. The "Fantasy Centennial Renderings" in our collection were put together by Mr. Dahl to secure Dallas as the host city for the Worlds Fair celebration in 1936. George Dahl supervised over 8,000 workers and developed 200 acres of exhibit buildings and infrastructure in nine months during the depression. Today the fairgrounds are on the National Register of Historical buildings and are the largest concentration of public Art Deco buildings in the United States.
