Patrick and Beatrice Haggerty Museum of Art

(487 m 2). Construction was made possible by a donation from alumnus and co-founder of Texas Instruments, Inc. Haggerty (1914–1980) and his wife Beatrice (1913–2003), for whom the museum is named. The building was originally designed by San Antonio architect O'Neil Ford. After Ford's death, the project was taken over by Milwaukee architect David Kahler. American artist and social activist Keith Haring created a mural called Construction Fence, inspired by breakdancing, for the fence surrounding the building's construction site. The work was later relocated inside the galleries.
