MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- Troy University’s Rosa Parks Museum will display “MJ Obscura” by Amalia Amaki, an exhibit exploring the life and legacy of Michael Jackson through photos and mixed-media art, in November.
The exhibit is intended to showcase the traits and beliefs of Jackson as a person, rather than a celebrity.
“While a part of his intent was obviously to entertain, there is a culturally intelligent and politically astute side of Michael Jackson that has not been seriously explored,” said Georgette Norman, director of the Rosa Parks Museum. “Amaki’s body of work introduces a few basic concepts that will be elaborated on and more fully developed in subsequent artwork and a book in progress of the same title.”
In addition to the photographs and artwork included by Amaki, the exhibit will also feature a variety of personal items and memorabilia from Jackson’s life. On Nov. 10, the museum will host a discussion of the exhibit with the artist during a gallery talk at 11 a.m. inside the museum auditorium. Admission is free and open to the public.
The exhibit will be on display in the museum exhibit hall from Nov. 8 through Jan. 4.
The exhibit hall at the Rosa Parks Museum is free and open to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday.
