The Portrait Show: Transparent Reflect

TransparentReflect

Opening : Friday August 21st, 6-11PM
Hours: By Appointment. 262-719-3500

Transparent Reflect examines portraits and self-portraits relationship in art.  The show takes the traditional approach of making a portrait from an observational standpoint and mixes it with the more reflective side of a self-portrait.  The artists in the show use photography, drawing, painting and installation works to portray their ideas though a range of formal and abstract approaches. They use religion, sexuality, popular culture and the present economic times to create a response to the current state of the nation. Transparent Reflect questions the notion of identity, and brings forth reflection that is required and lately ignored in today’s society.
