About Us

Art This Week Productions is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to Art Education of the general public. We posted the first video of our inaugural series, Art This Week in May 2009 here at ArtThisWeek.com. We currently produce two series. For Art This Week, we interview artists and curators at Texas galleries and museums. We have in-depth conversations about current art exhibitions. For our video series, Voices on Art, we film hour long talks at art institutions across Texas. These videos can be panel discussions or in-depth art talks about exhibitions.

Our Art This Week videos are funded, in part, by a grant from ArtsDFW. A very big thank you for this grant funding.

Richard Serrano, Executive Director
Richard Serrano is the Director and Founder of Art This Week (2008), which is increasing accessibility of contemporary art education from its primary office in Dallas, Texas. Serrano, a Dallas-Ft. Worth native, received his Bachelors in Art from the University of Dallas (1999). 
Stemming from his passion for critical discourse and serious documentation surrounding contemporary art, Serrano continues to bridge the gap between art, its practitioners, curators, scholars, the spaces in which it exists and its communities through Art This Week’s free online video podcasts and documentaries. When Richard is not editing, attending art events, or contributing to global warming with his regular Dallas-Fort Worth commute, he is editing…always editing.

Autumn Flores
I currently live in East Lansing, Michigan. I practice painting and drawing and work in the Legal Department at a financial institution. Although I no longer live in Texas, my art journey began there. I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Art from Texas A&M University Corpus Christi and then received my Master’s Degree in Art History from the University of North Texas. I have worked in many branches of the arts including galleries, museums, and classrooms. I joined Art This Week several years ago to reconnect to the Texas art scene and join forces with one of the greatest art podcasts out there.

Since completing her MA in Art History at TCU in 2017, she has worked as a curatorial assistant, contributed to numerous museum publications, and taught art history at TCU and UNT.
