Pivot Art & Culture Presents A CLOSER LOOK
By: Molly Tracy Dec. 07, 2016
In this age of selfies, portraits have never been more common nor, in many cases, more superficial. Explore a new exhibition at Pivot Art + Culture dedicated to portraits and consider how artists from different continents, cultures and centuries attempt to distill the rich complexity of their subjects into a single, static image that conveys their essence. By presenting these enduring portraits, A Closer Look will invite visitors to consider what qualities give these works their depth, power and presence. The variety of artists on display will offer something for everyone from Pierre-Auguste Renoir to Ansel Adams to David Hockney and Georges Seurat. Portraits from a selection of Northwest artists will also be on display comprising the complementary exhibition, Implied Fictions. Featuring works by: Holly Andres, Marsha Burns, Aleah Chapin, Scott Fife, Ann Gale, Susie J. Lee, Jim Phalen, Akio Takamori, Storm Tharp, Samantha Wall, Tariqa Waters, and Alice Wheeler.
