A fresh batch of art highlighting the London carnival will be on display at the Art Museum at The University of Memphis on July 17.
"Midnight Robberies: The Artists of Notting Hill Carnival" captures the art of the historical street performances though photography, filmed interviews and an interactive multimedia program that gives users a glimpse into the masquerade experience.
Assistant art director at AMUM Lisa Francisco Abitz said the exhibit will feature photos of people dressed in colorful costumes and masks as they perform in London's biggest street carnival.
"The costumes are spectacular," she said. "Students will enjoy seeing photos of the performance."
The free exhibition, which premiered in London in 2007, will be on display through Sept. 11.
