This exhibition is an exercise in comparison. It invites visitors to consider pairs of artworks, drawn primarily from the Museum’s permanent collection, and contemplate the question posed by its title: are these artworks truly Two of a Kind?
The pairs are presented in five different groups or categories that offer a starting point from which to begin. Material Matters considers how an artist’s materials or media impact our experience of the art. The pairs in Seeing Double suggest that there are many different ways that works can be made to “go” together. What’s in a Name examines the importance of an artwork’s title, and sometimes the artist’s name, in shaping our understanding of its meaning. A Matter of Perspective investigates how the identity of the artist, subject, or viewer can create a unique vantage point that frames the scene in a particular light. Tête-à-tête explores the ways that artists can build upon or respond to each other’s work. This category also proposes new parallels between pieces that may never have been put into conversation with one another before.

Staff Picks
Through May 10, 2026Curating this exhibit has been an exercise in collaboration, which is one of our core values at the Museum. We began by asking each staff member to make a short list of some of their favorite works in the collection. Then, the curatorial team took them to see a few of those pieces. We asked the staff to look for artworks that were not already on display and would not be part of any upcoming exhibitions. A person’s taste in art is so uniquely personal and individual to who they are. This exhibition is not only an opportunity for you to get to know our staff, but it is also a chance to discover new pieces in the permanent collection—or perhaps to see old favorites in a new light.

Take a wander on the wild side and explore the Prismatic Menagerie from the National Museum of Wildlife Art to Center for the Arts—it’s a straight shot down Cache/Hwy 89. With five bold origami-inspired sculptures, this exciting outdoor exhibition brings Hacer’s work to Jackson Hole through a collaboration between two of Jackson’s impactful art institutions.
