“Reinventing Portraits,” by Utah’s Prison Education Project
Presented by Salt Lake City Public Library at Salt Lake City Public Library Main Branch
Opening reception for “Reinventing Portraits: Paintings from Utah's Prison Education Project.” Art Exhibit runs Dec 5, 2023–Jan 14, 2024, at the Main Library's Lower Urban Room.
ARTIST STATEMENT:
In a semester-long art course through the University of Utah's Prison Education Project, students at the Utah Department of Corrections engaged in questions surrounding portraiture in a contemporary setting. Those questions included: How do we wish to portray ourselves to the world? What is at stake in the difference between realism and symbolism? How can we depict inner qualities? Aspirations? Unseen beauty?
