HEADSTRONG
The artists in
“Headstrong” all deal with a subject matter that is equally indicative of the
quality of presence. In the past, a portrait was painted in order to placate
the will of some wealthy patron or public official, or to stand as an example
of fact in history. There were no photographs, so that a skillfully completed
portrait was both a tribute to whoever was being depicted and a manifestation
of historical significance. Today
the artist decides upon both the subject and the manner of its depiction, with
results that are surprising.
