An artwork, which is part of the TPAC's art collection

The Tulsa PAC Art Collection

The element that unites all spaces at the Tulsa Performing Arts Center is art — a collection of more than 70 pieces: art overhead, on the grounds, along the corridors and in the lobbies.

The TPAC's permanent art collection boasts famous Oklahoma artists like Alexandre Hogue, P.S. Gordon, Wilson Hurley and Otto Duecker; a large sampling of Native American art; and such art superstars as America's Joseph Raffael and Edward Corbett, British-born Dame Barbara Hepworth, Dutch artist Karel Appel, Russian artists Louise Nevelson and Ilya Bolotowsky, Hungary's Gabor Peterdi and Germany's Wolf Kahn.
