About: Dr. Oliver McRae
Dr. McRae is an unusual hybrid of Scholar and Artist. For two decades he was a university Art Historian with scholarship published in four languages.
For four decades he’s been a professional commission artist, with sculptures and paintings in various public and private institutions and collections.
His prime area of ongoing scholarship is the collaborative, intermingling integration of Architecture, Art and Society – as the pinnacle of Civilization.
Considered a “Futurist”, Dr. McRae has been consulting with industry leaders for two decades. His presentations and workshops build on the strengths of the Past and the Present in charting the trends, and locating the hotspot potential just ahead in both the near and long term Future.

Teaching for over 27 years, he received the Linden Heck Howell Outstanding Teaching of Texas History Award in 2011.
