ART BEEF is a collective of artists based in Dallas, Texas interested in challenging notions of authorship and market structure, while questioning the forms of programming most often associated with other artist-run spaces, galleries, organizations, and institutions.
While individual artists ourselves, Art Beef is not intended to serve a platform for our own respective practices. This collaborative project is, therefore, a problematizing exploration of artists as curator without the constraints of either a commercial or not-for-profit art space, examining the status and function of art, particularly within the city of Dallas.

BEEFHAUS is Art Beef's first long-term project space located at 833 Exposition Ave in Dallas, Texas. The space hosts a wide-range of exhibitions, performances, screenings, site-specific installation, panel discussions, artist talks, and more. The space is intended as a vehicle for collaboration with other artists, art groups, and performers across a variety of disciplines. Proposals are welcome. All profits from the sale of works go entirely to the respective artist(s); Beefhaus encourages a donation to help offset the costs of maintaining the space.
