Description
The public image of the visual artist, like that of the radio host, is an elusive one. More often than not we are more familiar with an artist's body of work, his or her "voice in the artworld, than with what the artist physically looks like. This is the paradox of the artist as image-maker. About Face confronts this discrepancy by presenting portraits of artists alongside examples of their work. This exhibition culls from the Gallery's permanent collection and offers the finest examples of Canadian pictures and portraiture.
