This exhibit features the unique portraiture styles of nine of our region’s artists, each who are intricately woven into our art community. Portraiture, one of the oldest art forms, captures a moment in an individual’s journey, immortalizing their existence. In contrast to photo ‘selfies’, the portraits are meticulously crafted, often from photos personally captured by the artists in moments of shared presence or during formal sittings. Whether the paintings are made with photo-realistic precision, a touch of glamour, or a stylized drawing, the artwork reveals the individual’s inner essence, distinct personality, and perhaps the cultural and societal context as seen through the eyes of the artist.
You can find this exhibit next to Center Court.
