O ther highlights of the week included "Talk of the Town," a pop-up exhibit at NorthPark Center that focused on artistic interpretations of womanhood; a pop-up installation and book launch celebrating the work of late artist and poet John Giorno, presented by art gallery Morán Morán at The Joule; the unveiling of Tulsa-based sculptor Rachel Hayes' site-specific work Round the Bend, made from the artist's signature diaphanous textiles (reminiscent of Christo and Jeanne- Claude) at Klyde Warren Park; and a panel discussion hosted at the Nasher Sculpture Center on the importance of museum acquisition. That week, the fair also announced the 13 artworks that were added to the Dallas Museum of Art's permanent collection as part of the seventh Dallas Art Fair Foundation Acquisition Program, an annual gift from the Dallas Art Fair Foundation.

Chosen artworks were by Chelsea Culprit (Morán Morán), Uuriintuya Dagvasambuu (Sapar Contemporary), Karla Diaz (Luis de Jesus Los Angeles), Freya Douglas-Morris (Alexander Berggruen), Michael Dumontier & Neil Farber (Patel Brown), Riley Holloway (Erin Cluley Gallery), Yifan Jiang (Meliksetian | Briggs), Yowshien Kuo (Luce Gallery), Masamitsu Shigeta (12.26), and Nishiki Sugawara-Beda (Cris Worley Fine Arts).
