  • A Conversation with Jane Blaffer Owen and Elizabeth Gregory, Joe
    R ecalling Houston’s Early Days and Its Oilmen: A Conversation with Jane Blaffer Owen and Elizabeth Gregory, Joe Pratt, and Melissa Keane ane Blaffer Owen, an arts patron, social activist, and preservationist, was the daughter of Robert Lee Blaffer, one Jof the founders of Humble Oil & Refining Company (now ExxonMobil), and the granddaughter of William T. Campbell, who established the The Texas Company, which became Texaco. She was born on April 18, 1915, and grew up in the family home at 6 Sunset Boulevard in Houston. She attended the Kinkaid School, and graduated from the Ethel Walker School in Simsbury, Connecticut. She studied at Bryn Mawr College and Union Theological Seminary. In 1941, she married Kenneth Owen, a descendant of New Harmony Utopian Society founder Robert Owen.

She received many awards and honorary degrees over the years. In 2009, Jane Blaffer Owen achieved the highest honor given by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the Crowninshield Award. Although dividing her time between Houston and New Harmony, a historic town founded by her father-in-law as a utopian community, Blaffer Owen served as the first president of Allied Arts Council, as an early organizer of the Seamen’s Center, as a trustee of the C. G. Jung Education Center, and as a board member of the Sarah Campbell Blaffer Foundation— demonstrating her community activism in the Bayou City.

    Frank Stella American, born 1936 Euphonia, 1997 Acrylic on canvas, lobby ceiling: 360 x 840 inches; triptych: 120 x 600 inches; theater catwalk: 600 x 372 inches University of Houston Like all great painters, Stella has the gift of recognizing not only what painting is but what it can be. —William Rubin, Frank Stella 1970–1987 What Painting Can Be There is an undeniable spirit of generosity about Frank Stella’s grand mural Euphonia (1997). To behold it is to fall (literally) under its sway—from below—and marvel at its powerful presence and overabundance. The monumental generosity of this work arises from the fact that it is a public work, at a public university, in a space activated by countless performances and events attracting wide audiences. Stella specifically created Euphonia to be shared— communally and in a setting alive with music and gatherings. In 1997, as the newly minted director of the University of Houston’s Blaffer Art Museum, I had the unmitigated surprise and thrill to be able to work with this iconic artist on the creation of this masterwork, and on the accompanying exhibition it occasioned. We titled the show Stella in Studio to highlight what was to come as he undertook one of his largest commissions to date—a proj- ect so vast that it necessitated the opening of a Stella studio in Houston. Little did we know what to expect. Euphonia is also generous in its accumulation of styles. While largely composed of abstract shapes and colors, the work does not rely on the stereotypical brand of modernist abstraction that offers little visual stimulation to its viewer—difficult, stingy, hermetic, minimal.
