INFO
View eight Dalí masterworks in the Museum’s permanent collection using augmented reality (AR) technology to gain a deeper understanding of the meaning behind their complex imagery. Coined by Dalí Museum founder A. Reynolds Morse, the term “masterworks” refers to paintings exceeding five feet in height or width, painted over a period of a year or longer – in other words, they are both monumental in scale and critical Dalí paintings. To see these works through the lens of AR, get the free Dalí Museum App from the App Store (Apple) or Google Play (Android). Then view these remarkable canvases in the James Family Wing (or reproductions of the works from anywhere on your personal device)
What to Expect
Viewing each Masterwork through The Dalí Museum app on a mobile device, visitors see the paintings come to life, highlighting and exploring their complexities. The details featured in the AR experience are based in part on common questions and challenges Museum-goers have about these works, providing a more meaningful understanding of Dalí’s canvases. Those who have seen these paintings are invited to look again and experience them in a whole new way.
To Get the App on Your Device
1. Connect to Wi-Fi
2. Search App Store (Apple) or Google Play (Android) for “The Dalí Museum”
3. Click “get” or “install”

INFO
True Nature: Rodin and the Age of Impressionism presents works by one of the most celebrated sculptors of all time side-by-side with remarkable paintings by his renowned contemporaries. Rodin (1840-1917) created dramatic works that are instantly recognizable and pervade our collective cultural consciousness. This exhibition includes more than 60 of his masterpieces ranging from intimately-scaled marble statues to monumental bronzes. It offers a remarkably comprehensive look at the artist placing him within the context of the profound artistic cultural and social changes occurring at the end of the nineteenth century in France. True Nature also explores Rodin’s desire for academic recognition even as he remained at the forefront of the avant-garde alongside the Impressionists.
Featuring examples of the artist’s most eminent works such as Monument to Honoré Balzac (1897) Saint John the Baptist Preaching (1878) and Jean d’Aire (1886) this exhibition looks beyond Rodin’s popular persona as the tormented Romantic genius revealing his extraordinary powers of observation and ability to capture emotion and movement. True Nature also includes major paintings such as Claude Monet’s In the Woods at Giverny (1887) Paul Cézanne’s Still Life with Cherries and Peaches (1885-1887) Edgar Degas’ The Bellelli Sisters (1865-1866) and Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s Two Girls Reading (1890-1891). Consummate photographs drawings and sculptures by other masters of the period also join the exhibition.
True Nature: Rodin and the Age of Impressionism is organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

INFO
Perhaps the best-known Japanese art form outside of the country since its doors reopened to the world in the 1850s, Japanese woodblock prints immediately captivated European and American audiences. The bold bright color schemes, novel vantage points, and audacious compositions with off-center subjects were a revelation to Westerners who were struck by the supreme artistry of these everyday objects.
Lasting Impressions presents sixty of the finest Japanese prints from the Read-Simms Collection at the Gibbes Museum of Art. From famous Kabuki theater actors portrayed by Suzuki Harunobu and Tōshūsai Sharaku in the eighteenth century, to vibrant landscapes by Utagawa Hiroshige and Katsushika Hokusai in the nineteenth century, the collection demonstrates the remarkable precision in print production long admired by collectors and artists alike. This exhibition allows visitors a unique opportunity to explore a wide range of print subjects and to better understand the nuanced culture of the Edo period through the particular genius of individual artists.

Designing the New: Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the Glasgow Style presents 166 remarkable works of art and design by and related to the Glasgow School the majority of which will be on public display for the first time in North America. Characterized by taut lines stylized natural forms sleek curves and emphatic geometries the unique Glasgow Style emerged from the Arts and Crafts movement to become the only British response to international Art Nouveau in the late 1890s to 1900s. Many followers of the contemporaneous American Arts and Crafts movement were influenced by the groundbreaking work of Mackintosh and the Glasgow School including Gustav Stickley’s Craftsman Workshops Dard Hunter and the Roycrofters.
May Queen Detail
The first Mackintosh retrospective to tour the United States in a generation Designing the New introduces audiences to some of the architect-designer-artist’s most iconic works. It presents his big bold graphic designs for posters and his high-backed chairs for Miss Catherine Cranston’s famous Glasgow artistic tearooms in contrast with his lesser-known but equally striking experiments in textile design interior design and the intricate watercolors he painted in the last years of his life.
Designing the New is the first-ever exhibition in the United States to contextualize Mackintosh’s seminal work – architecture design and art – in relation to the broader yet intimately connected circle of designers architects and craftspeople with which he shared sources inspiration ideas motifs and patrons. Offering a unique and expanded dialogue about Mackintosh’s milieu this exhibition highlights the connections between Mackintosh his predecessors contemporaries collaborators patrons kindred spirits and his hometown city of Glasgow – industrial heartland of nineteenth-century Scotland.
Designing the New: Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the Glasgow Style is a touring exhibition co-organized by Glasgow Museums and the American Federation of Arts. Support for the U.S. national tour is provided by the Dr. Lee MacCormick Edwards Charitable Foundation. The exhibition comprises works from the collections of Glasgow City Council (Museums and Collections) with loans from Scottish collections and private lenders.
Catalogue
Designing the New: Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the Glasgow Style is accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue presenting new research by guest curator Alison Brown. The catalogue is 184 pages with 223 color illustrations co-published by DelMonico Books•Prestel. Available at the MAACM Store.

INFO
Initiated in 1985 this annual juried art exhibition presents work by middle and high school students whom are invited to explore ideas and visions similar to those explored by Salvador Dalí and the surrealists. This year the theme is “The Metamorphic Moment” a theme that encourages students to explore the process and meaning of transformation through time myth and literature.
Metamorphosis is “a change of the form or nature of a thing or person into a completely different one by natural or supernatural means.” With insects or amphibians metamorphosis is “the process of transformation from an immature form to an adult form in two or more distinct stages.” Metamorphosis relates to the age-old experience of looking at clouds and recognizing familiar images like seeing a face transition into a bird. The concept is also woven into our culture. In Greek mythology metamorphosis explains Zeus’ transformation into a swan to visit Leda or Daphne turning into a laurel tree to escape Apollo’s advances. In modern culture Kafka’s short story “The Metamorphosis” focuses on Gregor Samsa’s inexplicable transformation into a cockroach. In X-Men Mystique is a shapeshifter who can morph into another shape or state at will. Western culture is bound by both the delight and terror of metamorphosis. In some situations it is seen as a punishment while in other contexts it is seen as a superpower.
In the visual arts metamorphosis is often the domain of the surrealists. From René Magritte to Max Ernst the representation of metamorphosis is a central subject. One of Salvador Dalí’s most celebrated skills was his ability to see the world differently recognize how to see something transform into something completely different by simply by refocusing one’s view then use his refined techniques to capture that vision for others to see.
“The Metamorphic Moment” theme invites students to reflect on the idea of metamorphosis and create their own visual interpretation of “the metamorphic moment.” All 2D media types are welcomed and encouraged as submissions.
This exhibit is held in the Raymond James Community Room on the ground floor of the Museum. Access to the Museum’s ground floor is free and open to the public; online timed reservations are available by selecting ‘Ground Floor Only’ at the ticket here. The Raymond James Community Room occasionally closes for private events in which case the exhibit will not be accessible.

INFO
This fourth iteration of Explore the Vaults features pieces from the museum’s permanent collection, specifically paintings known as “cabinet pictures” and small works on paper. The former are diminutive paintings which are exquisitely executed for viewing at close range or which reveal the artist’s creative process. They take their name from the little rooms or cabinets in which such works traditionally were displayed.
Explore the Vaults: Cabinet Pictures and Works on Paper celebrates the gifts of a few key collectors. Among these is Margaret Acheson Stuart (1896–1980), the museum’s founder. The small size of these light-sensitive drawings, watercolors, etchings, and engravings, make them the perfect subject for the close looking and contemplation offered by the more intimate gallery space and drawered cabinets.

Exploring the influence of southern Europe on the famed 20th-century master Pablo Picasso’s revolutionary work. Organized in collaboration with the Musée national Picasso-Paris which holds the most significant collection of the artist’s works the exhibit presents 79 paintings drawings and collages – approximately half of which have never been seen in the U.S.
Some of Picasso’s most creative and prolific artistic periods took place during extended sojourns in the mountain towns of northern Spain and along the Mediterranean coast of France where he made many of his most important contributions to modern art. The exhibit encompasses an exceptional selection of portraits still lifes figural studies and landscapes while incorporating historical photographs that provide candid glimpses of Picasso in his series of studios in the south.
With works from six decades of his prolific career the exhibition is organized chronologically showcasing Picasso’s early experimentation and the evolution of Cubism through his later works that turned to a deeper engagement with the unconscious and Surrealism.
Visitors to The Dalí may further their understanding of the genre of Cubism through the Museum’s exclusive new artificial intelligence experience called YOUR PORTRAIT. Guests can have their photo transformed into a one-of-a-kind Cubist work of art. While their unique portrait is being generated they will gain insight into Cubist imagery compositions and color palettes alongside experiencing how the machine-learning application mimics those characteristics.

After three years of an intense visual art curriculum students in their fourth year at Pinellas County Center for the Arts (PCCA) at Gibbs High School begin preparation for their senior project. The senior project is required of all PCCA students wishing to graduate with a certificate from the program.
Seniors in the visual art department must develop a cohesive body of work that describes an in-depth exploration of a particular artistic concern or visual idea. Works produced between the beginning of the school year in August through the middle of February when the first exhibitions begin are eligible for exhibition. Usually the concept or concentration idea is not fully developed until mid-October when students begin to focus their full attention on their senior project. Students seeking a one person show at the Morean Arts Center must apply in December with examples of their work and an artist statement explaining the focus and direction of their concentration.
Three students are then selected from the applicants by the visual arts department faculty. This is an honor for these students and a very difficult task for the faculty since a majority of the seniors apply. All other visual arts senior projects are exhibited in a series of group exhibitions between mid-February and the end of April in PCCA’s two galleries on the campus of Gibbs High School.
The Senior Thesis Exhibitions for 2022 are:
Lauren Martin: Therianthropic Arcana
April 8 – 20
Anderson Bray: Mother

INFO
Clyde Butcher’s photographs reveal wild and natural places where few humans have ventured, with images capturing remarkable solitude and wonder. His large-scale dramatic images are a valued artistic expression of what we have, and what we might lose if we do not protect our environment. Butcher grew up in California and later relocated to Florida, finding peace and his life’s mission within the Everglades. Butcher is an ambassador to the arts and environment, a diplomat of the remaining wild places, and an emissary to the hearts and minds of Americans to protect our country’s natural places.
“This exhibition shows such a variety of Clyde Butcher’s stunning landscapes from all over the country. His perspectives are just incredible”, said Emily Kapes, Curator of Art.

Ansel Adams: The Masterworks
This exhibition includes 32 black and white gelatin silver prints, spanning four decades of photography. The Masterworks showcases the skill and talent through which Ansel Adams captured the majesty of National Parks, the unique peoples of New Mexico and the ever-changing landscapes of America. Masterworks contains some of Adams’ most well-known images, such as Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico; Aspens, Northern New Mexico; and Winter Sunrise, The Sierra Nevada. This exhibition invites the viewer to see and feel how Adams experienced America—a place of vast natural wonder, breathtaking beauty and worthy of environmental protection.
“Beauty is at the heart of this exhibition; it serves as an opportunity for us to connect with the awe-inspiring natural beauty found all over this country, lifting us out of the day-to-day,” said Laura Hine, Executive Director.

INFO
Another spring here in the Sunshine State and we’re pleased to present a bumper crop of new emerging artists for Fresh Squeezed 6. This region in which we live work and play continues to be a breeding ground for exciting new talent.
For those who are new to the Fresh Squeezed model: this exhibition is open to any artist over the age of
18 living in Florida. Our only definition of an emerging artist is one who has never had a solo show in this state (BFA/MFA exhibitions don’t count). We received nearly 150 entries with only 6 slots to fill. The jurying process is always exciting and our staff looks forward to it every year. The process is not without its trials though; it’s hard to say “no for now” to so many excellent artists due to space constraints.
The artists who make up this year’s exhibition present artwork that is bright unique and innovative. Eugene Ofori Agyei Lauren Mann and Sheherazade Thenard create work based on notions of identity emphasizing our individual differences while acknowledging our shared humanity. Morgan Janssen and Sam McCoy simultaneously celebrate and skewer the Florida landscape and what it means to live in “paradise.” Macy
Higgins created an immersive experience for our visitors using vintage objects inherited from her family members. You’ll notice that color plays a starring role in the work: witness Thenard’s jewel-toned skin treatment Agyei’s joyfully patterned fabric Higgins’ afghans and “iced” confections Mann’s meticulous colored pencil motifs Janssen’s faux tropical greenery and McCoy’s fiery Florida skies. This is contemporary Florida artwork in all its unapologetic boldness.
Heartfelt thanks to our friends and sponsors whose support allows us to travel throughout the state to
visit each artist provide shipping for their artwork and the exhibition brochure that we (and their mothers) like to keep for posterity in this increasingly digital world. These include founding sponsors the Gobioff
Foundation and Lisa and Perry Everett as well as The Bank of Tampa and First Citrus Bank. Thank you to the education and exhibitions staff of the Morean who help us whittle down the application list and to Beth Reynolds for her stellar artist photographs and videos. Thank you also to Betsy Orbe Lester and Tom Kaltenbaugh who make our galleries sing with beauty. Last but certainly not least thank you to the six artists who were fearless enough to make this work and to allow us to share it with our community.

Tony Rosa is a self-taught artist that has created a series of paintings that capture the working spirit of a Florida orange grove called American Pickers. He is a big fan of the same-named television program and feels the series has at least one thing in common with the show: they both encompass a search of the back roads to discover hidden treasures. “Ultimately I chose the ‘American Pickers’ title because I felt it was the best description. My purpose was not meant to make any kind of political statement but I hope it will make some viewers pause to think about what is portrayed and how accurate and appropriate the label is.”
Tony Rosa lives in Florida’s heartland. A while back he stopped at an orange grove within a mile of his house and asked for permission to spend a little time among the workers. He felt something extraordinary happened. “I found a story I wanted to tell” Rosa says. Painting the scenes he discovered that day became a compulsion. “I was inspired and energized and worked like a mad man for ten straight weeks. I’m convinced the whole process was a magical moment with the proof being in the effort and motivation that moved me.” Rosa admits his Spanish language skills are limited but he understood one particular phrase. “As I moved throughout the orange grove a number of the pickers nodded smiled and commented as they worked: ‘Muchas Naranjas.’ It was only fitting to use it as the title for a number of the paintings.”
Through a Proclamation earlier this year the Highlands County Board of County Commissioners in conjunction with the exhibition declared February 5 2022 as ‘American Pickers Day’ to recognize and celebrate orange grove workers in the community. That same week fifth and sixth grade students from a local school visited the Highlands Museum of Arts to see the American Pickers exhibition. By a show of hands it was discovered that it was the first time for most of them to ever visit an art museum. What made it even more special was realizing a number of the students had parents or family members that worked in the orange groves. “I believe it’s a rare occasion to witness art having a tangible impact on culture and society” Rosa adds while reflecting on the impact the exhibition had in Highlands County. “It was special.”
For three consecutive years Tony Rosa’s paintings took the top prize at the Tampa Bay Lightning’s Annual Celebration of the Arts. More than 500 entrants were received each year and reviewed by a blind panel of jurors that included representatives from the Tampa Museum of Art the Ringling Museum of Art the Museum of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg and the Dali Museum. Another of his works Bayonets and Bougainvillea currently hangs in the mural plaza at the A. E. Backus Museum and Gallery in Fort Pierce.

More than any other visual medium women have played vital and sustained roles in the making and advancement of photography since its invention. Unfortunately this contribution has been underemphasized. With a broad interest growing in museums to enlarge the canon to be more inclusive and reflective of under-recognized contributors this exhibition seeks to do our part. The MFA photography collection is rich in examples of innovative courageous and talented women photographers from the earliest days of the medium to contemporary times.
Highlighting work by photographers like Julia Margaret Cameron (1815–1879) Gertrude Käsebier (1852–1934) Margaret Bourke-White (1904–1971) Diane Arbus (1923–1971) Sally Mann (b. 1951) and Imogen Cunningham (1883-1976) as well as lesser-known figures in the field this exhibition examines the rich visual testimony that contributed to the emergence of women as a driving force in modern photography.

Creating a work of art begins with a question. The artist might ask: What idea is important for me to communicate?
What concept do I want to explore? What emotions do I want to experience and evoke in the viewer? What interests me? Or perhaps the artist might contemplate: Why do we…?; What would happen if…?; What is the meaning of…?”
Each work of art will resolve or examine the question(s) asked by the artist. Answers will unfold differently as artists create compositions which address their unique queries. Content of the work may be representational or abstract. The style may be narrative commentary or purely aesthetic. There are no other limits on content or method.

INFO
For the past five decades, Dale Chihuly has pushed the medium of glass to its limits and inspired countless glass artists along the way. From the start of Pilchuck Glass School, which Chihuly cofounded in 1971, he has turned the Seattle area into a glass mecca for artists and collectors alike. His influence on the international contemporary glass movement is a well-known and documented fact.
Since opening the Chihuly Collection in St. Petersburg in 2010, our local artists, residents and visitors could see firsthand the magnificence of the artist’s installations, creating a home-grown buzz about this iconic artist’s work and contributing to the burgeoning glass art scene in the area. Chihuly’s scope of influence now feels closer to home.
But what about Chihuly’s impact on artists who work in other mediums? We selected 10 stellar local artists, each with spheres of influences of their own, and asked them to select a piece from the Chihuly Collection they admire. They were then asked to create a work of art “inspired by” that particular piece. The artists that were asked to participate are not glass artists; they are installation artists, muralists, painters, ceramicists, and more. The idea was to show the far reach of Chihuly’s influence and inspiration beyond the realm of glass.
Some of these artists’ connections to Chihuly’s work are more straightforward than others; many were influenced by his powerful forms and sense of color. We hope this exhibition introduces you to extraordinary local artists you may not have known before, and helps you look at Chihuly’s work in a new and engaging way.

The Museum of Fine Arts St. Petersburg is proud to present the first solo museum exhibition of multidisciplinary artist Gio Swaby (b. 1991 Nassau Bahamas) whose work explores the intersections of Blackness and womanhood. Employing the portrait genre and a range of textile-based techniques Swaby’s work is anchored in a desire to present and celebrate the complex personalities of the sitters. Interested in restorative forms of resistance she has stated “My work operates in the context of understanding love as liberation a healing and restorative force. These pieces celebrate personal style strength beauty individuality and imperfections.”
Swaby works in series form and the exhibition will feature bodies of work spanning 2017 through 2021. Growing up surrounded by the threads and fabrics of her mother a seamstress Swaby chooses to work in mediums traditionally associated with domesticity as a means to imbue her works with familiarity labor and care. Swaby upends tradition however and gives the sewing medium a sense of monumentality with the life-size series Pretty Pretty. The subjects are intricately rendered in freehand lines of thread and shown on the reverse side of the canvas so that the stitching process—its knots and loose threads so often hidden—is visible. There’s a vulnerability to “showing the back” but Swaby embraces and elevates the imperfections.
Swaby’s art is centered upon the personal connections forged between subject and artist and conversation is key to achieving these portraits of beauty and power that she deems love letters to Black women. The portraits begin with a photo shoot wherein the subjects are captured in a moment of empowerment and self-awareness. Swaby foregrounds their personal style —seen in the detailed renderings of jewelry hair and clothing—creating space for self-definition and unapologetic self-expression.
Swaby earned her BFA in Film Video and Integrated Media from Emily Carr University of Art Design Vancouver BC and is currently completing an MFA in Interdisciplinary Art Media and Design at OCAD University Toronto ON. She has exhibited internationally and her work is included in the permanent collections of major public institutions throughout the United States.
This exhibition is co-organized with the Art Institute of Chicago where it will open in 2023. A fully illustrated catalogue published by Rizzoli Electa accompanies the exhibition and features an interview between Swaby and Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Nikole Hannah-Jones as well as series introductions by the artist and essays by Melinda Watt the Art Institute of Chicago’s Chair and Christa C. Mayer Thurman Curator of Textiles and Katherine Pill Curator of Contemporary Art Museum of Fine Arts St. Petersburg.

Biography
iBOMS is a 20-year-old artist out of St. Petersburg Florida. Throughout his artistic journey he has acquired many skills. He has been exposed to different mediums as well as various ways to visualize his ideas. He has been inspired to create and bring to life every possible thought. Upon first glance his work may seem like simple illustrations and graffiti but each piece has a very unique story to tell. Some of self-love destruction and discovery. The purpose of his work is to catch and draw the viewer in to create that “awe” experience while exposing them to his world. The world of a young African American male!
He does this by painting and creating lively characters that at a glance you may not think there was a story behind it. But like in life everything wants to appear blissful but unannounced to everyone else a dark river runs beneath the surface.

Curated by Cindy Bartosek- While artists have been involved in making books for centuries it wasn’t until the second half of the 20th century that artists around the world began making books as an art form experimenting with innovative combinations of images text and format. The book form gives visual artists a space and a voice to explore and communicate important themes and visual ideas. This exhibition celebrates the book as art through a varied collection of inventive and intriguing works that challenge preconceptions of what a book is and can be.
Florida CraftArt invites new mid-career and established artists residing in Florida Georgia Alabama Mississippi South Carolina North Carolina and Tennessee to submit recent handmade artists’ books that represent a broad interpretation of the concept of “book” in new and unexpected ways.
Jurors’ selections are final and will be based on the level of technical skill quality and complexity of workmanship artistry and originality of design and impact of the work as represented in the images submitted. Cash prizes will be awarded.
Partnerships and educational programming include Jaffe Center for Book Arts at Florida Atlantic University and Keep St. Pete Lit
(*Fine craft techniques are ceramics fiber glass jewelry metal mixed-media sculpture and wood.)

INFO
The Visit presents the work of Uruguayan-Spanish artist Yamandú Canosa (born 1954). Through the exhibition, Canosa creates a contemplative dialogue between Surrealism and contemporary art. In the words of the artist, “The exhibition is intended as a visit that contemporary art pays to the house of Surrealism. One of the great legacies of the surrealist movement is its aesthetic complexity. This is confirmed by its permanence in today’s art. Surrealism is about an attitude, not aesthetic formulas: it is a way of looking at and relating to experience”.
The meditative installation explores Salvador Dalí’s environment in Port Lligat, Spain, where Dalí lived and worked throughout his lifetime. The works relate the viewer to the horizon, while alluding to the Bay of Port Lligat: the beach, the Tramontana wind, Dalí’s house and the island of Sa Farnera. Canosa’s installation also incorporates the Dibujos ciegos (Blind Drawings), a series of performative works on paper created through a drawing process that elaborates on surrealist practices.
The exhibit includes new and previous notable works by the artist, including paintings, drawings and photographs, plus a small selection of related Salvador Dalí works from the Museum’s renowned collection. A portion of the Museum’s Hough Gallery will be transformed into a dramatic installation designed by the artist specifically for the Museum. Organized by The Dalí, the project is curated by Dr. William Jeffett, chief curator, who has previously published about the artist’s work.
Special exhibits are included in the price of general admission. To reserve your ticket for this exhibit, book your visit during the exhibit timeframe (Jun 18-Oct 30, 2022) at the link below.

INFO
Known by the translation of his title and name, Prince Twins Seven Seven (Nigerian, 1944–2011), was the only surviving child out of seven pairs of twins born to his mother. Because of this, and the associated traditional religious beliefs of the Yoruba people of Nigeria, he held that he possessed unique spiritual insight and power. His perceptions in turn had a profound impact on his artistic expression as a printmaker, painter, and sculptor. This exhibition, which is largely drawn from the MFA’s collection, explores the visionary world of Prince Twins Seven Seven. Blending abstracted images of the physical world and evocations of the spirit world, the artist created a unique, powerful, and international style that bridges traditional and contemporary arts.
Prince Twins Seven Seven began his artistic life in a band, singing, and dancing. He shifted his attention to the visual arts after participating in a workshop established by Ulli Beier (German, 1922–2011), in Osogbo, Nigeria in the late 1960s. There he was encouraged to explore different types of media as well as the literature of Nigerian author Amos Tutuola (Nigerian, 1920-1997), ultimately leading him to create a distinctive style that remains rooted in the physical environment even as it evokes otherworldly visions. His work is thus akin to the literary genre of Magical Realism, which creates a realistic view of the world while at the same time adding supernatural elements to blur the lines between spirits and humans.
One of the features of this exhibition is the MFA’s holdings of early Prince Twins Seven Seven prints in different states. These provide a unique view into his working process during the first half of his career. Likewise, it will focus upon the MFA’s collection of his textile paintings and a drawing from the 1970s. Most of these objects reflect traditional Yoruba art and will be displayed with art from that culture. At the same time, however, Prince Twins Seven Seven’s work also shows how he was able to combine Yoruba artistic legacies with his own unique sense of color, pattern, and evocations of spirits and dreams. Multiple: Prince Twins Seven Seven offers a remarkable opportunity to examine the complicated, richly symbolic work of the artist, who relied both upon artistic legacy and innovation. The artist’s paintings, prints, and drawings also powerfully repudiates the frequently misconceived division between the traditional and contemporary in African art.
This exhibition occurs in the Minck Gallery, which is supported by the Helen and Richard Minck Memorial Fund.

This exhibition the first of its kind explores the path of Black history in the West with a timeline of original pictorial quilts. The timeline begins in 1528 with Esteban’s dramatic story which marks the arrival of Africans in the American West and continues through the Civil Rights Movement.
Dispelling the myth that Black people in the old West were mostly cowboys Black Pioneers: Legacy in the American West shows rich diversity in their occupations and achievements in society religion education and the arts.
Choosing quilts as the visual medium for this exhibition accentuates the intersections of African Americans in the Western Frontier while informing others about the art form and its important role in African American history.
This exhibition is organized by The James Museum of Western & Wildlife Art and Dr. Carolyn Mazloomi curator historian and artist. The quilts have been created by the Women of Color Quilters Network especially for this exhibition.

During the last several decades the work of the Outsider artists has come to the forefront of our thinking about the nature of art as their paintings and sculptures have made their way into fine art museums hanging alongside new and time-tested paintings and sculptures. To date collector Gary Monroe has acquired nearly a thousand pieces of Outsider art including works by Ruby Williams Eddy Mumma Frank Ritchie and Jesse Aaron. An Irresistible Urge to Create includes 86 works and features objects by several self-taught artists from Florida’s West Coast and Central region. A publication accompanies the exhibition with an essay by Gary Monroe a discussion by Boca Museum of Art Senior Curator Kathy Goncharov about the changing nomenclature of self-taught and folk artists and a specially commissioned poem by Campbell McGrath about artists’ urge to create.
An Irresistible Urge to Create: Florida Outsider Art from the Monroe Family Collection is organized by the Boca Raton Museum of Art.

INFO
Born in Matanzas Cuba in 1974 he grew up surrounded by intense contrasts of colors pre-1959 American cars and the surging Communist government. His immersion in Cuba’s rhythms and sensuousness was short lived but nonetheless had a lasting impact on his young imagination.
Forced into Castro’s Army at age 16 Rey served for several months until he gambled on a chance for freedom. After weeks of preparation and with few provisions he set out for the United States in a rustic boat that he built himself from found or traded materials.
Alfonso landed in Miami but soon settled in San Francisco. Over the next decade he worked with sculptors and metal craftsmen attaining an exhaustive knowledge of metal design and fabrication while forging his identity as an artist. His talent and ideas were quickly recognized and several of his public works and sculptural signs can still be seen in cities throughout the West Coast. It was his work with aluminum on a large scale commission that first intrigued and later obsessed Alfonso as he developed his present style.

Impact Influence | Paul Caponigro
American landscape and fine art photographer Paul Caponigro is known for his spiritual approach to image-making celebrating nature and life using his intuition rather than common compositional rules. This retrospective of Caponigro’s work will also feature platinum-palladium prints by photographers David Dennard and Pradip Malde who have been inspired and influenced by this Master of Photography. Caponigro has exhibited and taught throughout the United States and abroad. He is the recipient of two Guggenheim Fellowships and three National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) grants. His images can be found in the photographic collections of most museums and publications on the history of photography. This exhibition is a tribute to all teachers and the immeasurable impact they can have on their students.

INFO
Paul Jenkins (American 1923-2012) represents the legion of Abstract Expressionist artists who altered the landscape of modern art. Jenkins found inspiration in his journeys around the world particularly time spent in Japan. He is celebrated for his unorthodox approach to paint application. In the early 1950s and throughout his life the artist worked with controlled paint pouring. This method allowed him to create layers of translucent color as well as render stark contrasts between light and dark. This exhibition drawn from the holdings of the Haskell Collection in Jacksonville Florida and the Jenkins Estate looks at the evolution of Jenkins’ art from his large-scale paintings to works on paper. The exhibition will demonstrate how Jenkins’ groundbreaking techniques and imagery helped transform post-war painting.

INFO
Heather Rosenbach’s work serves as a critical self-reflection of identity and the social class in which she was raised. She uses craft and non-fine art materials–oversaturated, roughed up ceramics, reconstituted furniture, tablecloth scraps–which challenge the American middle-class comfort through their playful and undeniably handmade appearance. The artist develops narrative elements in form and surface that reference popular taste and employs lowbrow aesthetics. At the forefront of her studio practice is the concept of “sloppy craft” where finished pieces are intentionally created to appear rough-hewn or carelessly fabricated, but are in fact thoughtfully executed. Heather Rosenbach currently resides in Tampa, Florida where she now teaches ceramics to all ages. She received her MFA from SUNY New Paltz in 2019.

The Company We Keep: Photographs of Our Complex Relationships with Animals | Curator Selina Román
Throughout human history animals touch so many aspects of our lives – as companions labor food clothing and entertainment. We call them our children dress them and consider them one of the family. Other animals are raised for our entertainment or to be used for research often enduring cruel and heartbreaking conditions. The need to anthropomorphize these creatures and make them succumb to our whims has created a dangerous dynamic fraught with the best of intentions and calamitous outcomes.
In this two-fold exhibition photographers Jayanti Seiler and Jo-Anne McArthur offer poignant and powerful perspectives on the myriad interactions between humans and beast. Seiler turns her lens on a number of human-animal relationships – from the owners of exotic and big-breed animals as pets to those who employ animals as entertainers. Many of her photographs show the love and awe that these owners have for the animals; however in other images Seiler hints at the paradoxical nature of these relationships and the thin line between life and death on which these owners walk. With a heavy dose of beauty Seiler’s photographs offer a sobering non-judgmental look at the owners and their complicated bonds with their charges.

Tempus Projects presents a solo exhibition by Selina Román. A mistake, a malfunction wrapped up in magic and unintended consequences: Since late 2020, Román has been creeping at night with her camera to document malfunctioning purple streetlights around Tampa. Her series, A Bad Batch, includes spontaneous photographs as well as staged portraiture and video. Motors in the streetlights overheat and burn away the coating that makes the light white, leaving behind various shades of purple. Highlights on palm fronds become beautiful abstract forms. Alleyways become mysterious portals to other worlds. In the dark of night, these broken lights bathe their surroundings in an otherworldly hue that suspends reality and transports us to another dimension.
Tampa-based artist and Florida native Selina Román creates lens-based work that explores ideas of femininity, perception, liminality, memory, place, and how the invisible offers more answers than what’s visible. Román received her Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of South Florida in 2013. Prior, she worked as a newspaper reporter and investigator. Her work is in the collection of the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art in Tarpon Springs, and the Tampa Museum of Art. Román has exhibited at institutions such as The Ringling Museum of Art and Tampa Museum of Art, and internationally at Edna Manley College of Visual and Performing Arts in Jamaica and the Universidad del Sagrado Corazon in Puerto Rico. Her work was also featured at Brighton Photo Fringe in the UK during the 2016 Brighton Photo Biennial. She received a Hillsborough County Artist Grant in 2017 and 2021. She was also invited to participate in Review Santa Fe 2019 and 2022 and Critical Mass 2020. She currently teaches Photography at the university level.
Tempus Projects is located at 4220 N. Florida Ave.

Gallery Hours :: Tuesdays & Thursdays 10am-2pm; Fridays by appointment – text 813-340-9056
Tempus Projects presents a solo exhibition by Lucia Riffel in partnership with Dashboard, an Atlanta-based nonprofit arts agency. Lucia’s work leads viewers to the place between their minds and their screens, between space and time, between thought and feeling, and into the everyday sublime. She creates spaces in-screen and in-real-life that mix the surreal, cinematic, and commonplace through 3D animation and installation. Looping slowly yet infinitely, these spaces allow one to look through the mirror of the screen and enter a meditative headspace beyond as well as within. The post-internet culture of distraction leads our minds to occupy themselves in any way except internally – her work utilizes these same experiential stimuli to awaken interiority in a suspended metaphysical twilight zone.
Lucia Riffel is an installation and animation artist based in Tallahassee, FL. Riffel earned her Bachelor of Arts (2015) in Studio Art and Art History at the University of Minnesota, Morris, and her Master of Fine Arts (2018) at Florida State University. She navigates the space between physical, digital, and psychological realms in her interdisciplinary practice. Her otherworldly works have been shown at Day & Night Projects, Urban Glass, The Wiregrass Museum, and Carnation Contemporary. She has been awarded residencies at Laboratory Residency and Stay Home Gallery as well as Drum Machine Editions, publishing a set of three animated flipbooks made during her time there. Most recently, Riffel’s works have graced our minds and screens through virtual exhibition screensavor at The Neon Heater, and IRL exhibition Waiting Room at Laundromat Art Space in Miami, Florida.
Tempus Projects is located at 4220 N. Florida Ave.

THE LYRICAL MOMENT:
MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY ABSTRACTION
Taking as a starting point a substantial award by the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation the USF Contemporary Art Museum has organized an exhibition that features elegant hand-processed prints by pioneering artist Helen Frankenthaler and digitally-informed pop-inflected canvases and gouaches by Los Angeles painter Heather Gwen Martin. Born of the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation initiative to support university museums in their educational programming this exhibition brings together outstanding works on paper by a modern master with lyrical paintings by an accomplished contemporary artist whose colorful efforts invoke computational algorithms and twenty-first century screen culture.
Helen Frankenthaler (1928-2011) whose career spanned six decades has long been recognized as one of the great American artists of the twentieth century. She was eminent among the second generation of postwar American abstract painters and is widely credited for playing a pivotal role in the transition from Abstract Expressionism to Color Field painting. Through her invention of the soak-stain technique she expanded the possibilities of abstract painting while at times referencing figuration and landscape in unique ways. She produced a body of work whose impact on contemporary art has been profound and continues to grow.
Frankenthaler experimented tirelessly throughout her long career. In addition to producing unique paintings on canvas and paper she worked in a wide range of media including ceramics sculpture tapestry and especially printmaking. Hers was a significant voice in the mid-century “print renaissance” among American abstract painters. She continued to work and exhibit through the opening years of this century.
For more than a decade L.A.-based artist Heather Gwen Martin (1977) has been creating paintings that walk a tightrope between improvisation and deliberation dissolution and structure. While a full-time student at the University of California San Diego—where she studied with Pattern and Decoration pioneer Kim McConnell—Martin worked as a colorist for DC comics adding color onto scenes and characters using computer technology. The experience had an unintended but profound effect on her painting.
Today Martin’s canvases resemble splash pages for certain copyrighted film or screen-based entertainments. Nonetheless her vividly colored abstractions remain one hundred percent handmade containing no high-tech aides or digital fillers. Denuded of figures captions and word balloons her sprightly landscapes distill reflection and sensation into loops of sinuous line and flat areas of color. While some canvases superficially resemble the livelier aspects of swipe-and-like looking—rounded emoji-like shapes and abrupt transitions between bright areas of color—they impress sensorially like the taste of underripe fruit or a sharp intake of cold breath.
The Lyrical Moment: Modern and Contemporary Abstraction by Helen Frankenthaler and Heather Gwen Martin is curated by Christian Viveros-Fauné CAM Curator-at-Large; organized by the USF Contemporary Art Museum.

Dr. Drapkin has assembled an extensive collection of press photographs spanning the Vietnam War. These images capture the conflict and pathos of this difficult part of American history. The exhibition will explore the photographs themselves how they were created and experiences through a local context. Understanding the American War in Vietnam a book written by Dr. Drapkin will accompany the exhibition. Text in the exhibition and book illuminate the war’s history from multiple perspectives.
Proceeds from the exhibition and book sales will benefit the Rory Peck Trust which makes conflict training in hostile environments available to photographers covering conflict at their own personal risk.

INFO
Jesse Murry and Lisa Yuskavage met while attending Yale School of Art, where they received their MFAs in 1986. The bonds of their creative friendship are explored in USFCAM’s concurrent exhibition Necessary Angels: Jesse Murry & Lisa Yuskavage. Besides giving proof to the idea that artistic friendship can transcend simple influence and achieve higher dimensions of collaboration spurred on by mutual learning, respect, and love, Necessary Angels features rarely seen paintings on paper by Murry and celebrated paintings and watercolors by Yuskavage. Organized by USFCAM Curator-at-Large Christian Viveros-Fauné, the exhibition is only the second time that Murry’s and Yuskavage’s work has been presented under the same roof since their Yale 1986 MFA thesis show.
