Tyrannosaurus Rex Holds New Dallas Science Museum

Posted on September 21, 2010

A giant canvas mural measuring 80' wide by 22' tall depicts a Texas Tyrannosaurus Rex holding the new Perot Museum of Nature & Science that will open in Dallas in 2013.

The banner, unveiled by 2811 McKinney, was created by artist Douglas Rouse. The Perot Museum of Nature & Science at Victory Park, designed by Pritzker Prize laureate Thom Mayne and his California architecture firm Morphosis, broke ground last spring and is expected to open in early 2013.
