Houston Airports is home to one of the largest public art collections in Texas. Placed throughout the airport’s terminals and grounds, the collection includes everything from sculptures to photographs, predominantly by Texas-based artists. 

To showcase the collection, Houston Airports launched #HoustonAirportsArt -- a social media video series hosted by Houston Airports Art Curator Alton Dulany. The first webisode featured a popular sculpture called “Countree Music” located at Bush Airport’s Terminal A.  Created in 1999, “Countree Music” is a bronze cast of a 25-foot oak tree. The project includes a sound element that serenades passengers as they cross the terrazzo floor that depicts a world map showing Houston as the center of the world. 

Terry Allen is an independent artist working since 1966 in a wide variety of media including musical and theatrical performances, sculpture, painting, drawing and video, and installations. 

Travelers can check it out in Terminal A near gate 17.
