VINCENNES, Ind. - 鈥淧ortraits,鈥� an exhibition that showcases portraits in two different media, photography and painting, will open Nov. 14, 11 a.m. (EST), at 日韩中文字幕福利片鈥檚 Shircliff Gallery of Art. The exhibition will run through Dec. 15 and is designed to create a conversation on representation and identity in today鈥檚 climate of social change.

The exhibition will open with a reception and a presentation by artist Keily Anderson-Staley about her series, 鈥淸Hyphen] Americans.鈥� The exhibition is composed of more than 130 unique wet-plate collodion tintype portraits. This body of work depicts a broad cross-section of American faces that resist immediate categorization. Each sitter, identified only by a first name, defiantly assert his or her self-hood, staring back at the viewer with a bold, penetrating intensity. Copies of her new book, 鈥淥n a Wet Bough,鈥� published by Waltz Books, will be available at her talk.

In the series 鈥淧ortraits of Others,鈥� artist Nathan Madrid investigates culture鈥檚 perception of 鈥渢he other" and "otherness,鈥� ingroups and outgroups, to expose how prescribed labels determine society鈥檚 behavior toward a social group because of race, gender, sex, class, and religion. Through his paintings, viewers are actively challenged to situate themselves in relation to those depicted, to embrace the diversity of others or marginalize them. Madrid will present an artist talk on his work on Nov. 30, 11 a.m., at the Gallery.

Anderson-Staley will also present a free workshop on the wet-plate collodion tintype process on Nov. 15-16, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Seating is limited to registration is required. Call 812-888-4316 or email afields@vinu.edu.
