MOSTYN | Dear Portrait [institutional leadership]

20 Jul 2013 - 13 Oct 2013
Dear Portrait includes twenty international artists, with works that deploy the use of the portrait in various ways, and invites their subjects to respond to the works involving them. Through both the selection of works, and an exhibition concept that gives voice to those portrayed, Dear Portrait raises new understandings of ‘the portrait’, as well as of exhibitions based on traditional themes. A major group exhibition curated by Adam Carr, Visual Arts Programme Curator, MOSTYN | Wales.
