A Portrait: by Any Other Name
Come see vibrant new works of art in our April art exhibit “A Portrait… by Any Other Name.”
Heliconian visual artists were invited to enter visual portraits of any subject, and all club members were also invited to contribute pen portraits to the exhibit. The work on display may originate from encounters between the artist and herself, her subject or her imagination.
Portraiture is still relevant in this age of selfies and AI. Visitors are encouraged to think about how a portrait can reflect an essence or an idea.
In the words of the artist, Eileen Powers:
“At its most universal, a portrait is the essence of the subject, but that subject is not limited to people; a portrait can be any reflection of an essence or idea.”
Join us for the Reception on Saturday, April 6, 2 – 5 pm.
A second public opening is on Wednesday April 10, 4 – 7:30 pm.
View the exhibit through April by appointment: email rentals@heliconianclub.org to arrange a time.
Or view the show catalogue at your convenience. It will be available online on heliconianclub.org, starting April 4.
The show runs from April 4 to May 1, 2024. Admission is free.
