Pensacola Museum of Art announces interactive exhibition

The University of West Florida’s Pensacola Museum of Art announces the exhibition “The Reflected Self: A Cultural History of Portraiture,” which is on view through Oct. 22 in the Charles. W. Lamar, Sr. Assembly Room located on the second floor of the museum.

This exhibition provides an interactive means of exploration and discovery by allowing visitors to engage with the portraiture genre as both spectator and participant. Selected works from the museum’s permanent collection will be exhibited in salon style, to offer visitors a closer look at artists including Vivian Maier, Picasso and Gilbert Stuart. The exhibition also features three contemporary artists, Adrian Coates, Patryk Stasieczek and Marzia Ransom. Visitors are invited to activate their own portrait by being part of the exhibition in the digital Selfie Station and analogue Portrait Sitting Station.

Located at 407 S. Jefferson St. in historic downtown Pensacola, the Pensacola Museum of Art is open Tuesday through Wednesday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m., Thursday through Saturday from 10 a.m. until 7 p.m. and Sunday from noon until 4 p.m.
