About Face: Group Exhibition

A portrait is painting, drawing, photograph, or an artist representation of a person with a particular focus on the face. Most often a portrait unlike a snapshot is a composed image of a person in a still position. A portrait usually shows an individual gazing directly at the painter or photographer, in order to most effectively engage the subject with the viewer.

For this call to art Mona Niko Gallery invited artists to submit their best portrait. The resulting exhibition features local, national and international artists. The works capture personality, character, expression, spirit and mood.
