Yard Dog
1510 S Congress Ave.
Austin, TX 78704

When we opened in 1995, we were showing folk art from the Deep South. Our name, Yard Dog, was chosen to evoke that. We rather quickly began branching out, adding work by artists who were neither folk/outsider artists nor from the Deep South. That’s how we got to where we are now: showing work by artists from all over the world whose work falls into various categories. As it says above, offering fine art, pop art, & folky art from the US, Canada, Europe, and Australia. We show the work of a number of artists who are also rather well-known musicians, including Jon Langford, Bob Schneider, Tom Russell, Reg Mombassa, Peter O’Doherty, Ian McLagan, Darden Smith, & Jad Fair. – yarddog.com
