Overview
Organized by the University of Maryland, Baltimore County,
in collaboration with the Pensacola Museum of Art.
For the past twenty years American artist
Shannon Taggart (born 1975) has documented
Spiritualist practices and communities in
the United States, England and Europe. The
resulting body of work, Séance, examines
Spiritualism’s relationship with human celebrity,
its connections to art, science, and technology,
and its intrinsic bond with the medium of
photography. This exhibition presents
forty-seven haunting images from the series,
revealing the emotional, psychological, and
physical dimensions of Spiritualism in the
21st century.
