Yuma Art Center unveils ‘Contemporary Icons’ exhibit
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - A new exhibit at the Yuma Art Center is bringing history, spirituality and even augmented reality to life.
Artist Lee Lanier's series, "Contemporary Icons," reimagines saints and spiritual figures in bold, modern portraits.
With a free app, visitors can unlock augmented reality to learn even more about each icon's real story.
"Almost like a 3D reaction, it will pop out and you can see not only a description of who this person is or what they did, but original portraits," said Marvin Sevilla with the Yuma Art Center.
The contemporary icons exhibit is on display through August 15, giving locals a new way to experience art and history.
