What is a portrait and how is it defined? 

Portrait Gallery, a large-scale group exhibition that was sourced from a public call for portrait based works, is created around this very question. 

Inspired directly by portrait galleries in prominent art institutions around the world, this salon-style hang is meant to engulf the viewer in a sea of portraiture. Perhaps a single gaze will catch your eye or maybe an abstracted work will bring you in; regardless of where you find yourself in the gallery, a connection is waiting to be established between viewer and subject.
