"When I walked into Heyd Fontenot’s explosively celebratory, ultra-queer vaudeville of an
at Conduit a couple of weeks ago, I felt about five massive feelings, all at once. The first, though, was glee, in the way that shooting the middle finger at someone or something can feel so defiantly gleeful. It was clear that Fontenot, a longtime Texas favorite, is done being polite or even moderately accommodating. Good."

Ludwig Schwarz 'DESKTOP' reviewed in Dallas Morning News
Dallas Morning News | Nov 9, 2016 | by Rick Brettell
"Artist Ludwig Schwarz is so reliable in his exhibitions in Dallas and beyond that we tend almost to take him for granted.
His work appeared at Dallas' influential Angstrom Gallery in its heyday and more recently at Conduit Gallery and grittier venues. I have written about him pretty regularly because, as a 67-year-old guy who has gone to thousands of exhibitions in my life, I am constantly intrigued by his work. Through the years, I've become convinced that he is a major artist — one of the most important in our city's history."
