I found some good answers [here](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/update-existing-imshow-with-new-image-data/8296/12). Here is one way using `imshow`:

```julia
using Images, ImageView, Gtk, TestImages, GtkReactive
data = [...]
imgsig = Signal(data[1])
guidict = imshow_gui((300, 300))
canvas = guidict["canvas"]
Gtk.showall(guidict["window"])
imshow(canvas, imgsig)
begin
    for i in 2:length(data)
        push!(imgsig, data[i])
        sleep(0.05)
    end
end

```
