An Expanded Portrait. Works from the Permanent Collection
In dialogue with Kahlo: An Expanded Body, the Museum鈥檚 collection-based exhibition An Expanded Portrait features sixteen women artists exploring self-representation and particular manners in which women experience the world. The selected works on view sew a thread between self-agency, mortality, and the charged symbolism of the female body. Formally ranging in styles from representational to stylized and abstract, and varied in content from the metaphorical to the literal, each artist presents an expanded vision of portraiture and self-portraiture. The portrayals on view present varied, diverse, and unexpected ways to ultimately reveal the person within.
