The Gaze
TJ Boulting is delighted to present The Gaze, a group show curated by writer and editor Louis Wise. It takes as its starting point Moroni’s enigmatic and powerful portrait, The Tailor, which hangs in London’s National Gallery. His eyes, looking out directly at the viewer, are mysterious, touching and alluring, and have intrigued viewers for over 400 years. Bringing together contemporary and historical artists, The Gaze seeks echoes of this keystone of male portraiture, exploring the intimate, even unsettling relation between artist and sitter.
