“A neighborhood of art, free of charge”

The Menil Collection, located in Houston (Texas, USA) refers either to a museum that houses the private art collection of founders John de Ménil and Dominique de Ménil, or to the collection itself. Dominique was an heir to the Schlumberger oil-drilling fortune, and John was an executive of that company.
