Alter Ego

 

Self-portraiture is often used to explore and manipulate identity. There is a performative aspect to this genre. By turning the camera on oneself the photographer is brought out from behind their lens, and able to choose how they would like to the world to see them.

The photographer invites judgment and critique on not only their artistic message, but also their appearance and demeanor. For this exhibition, The Kiernan Gallery seeks self-portraits that provide insight into the “second self” that appears when artist becomes subject.

Open to all artists

Flower among flowers,
soft bud swooning,
opening her lovely petals,
bursting forth with life.

Humans bloom like flora and fauna; the girl on the cusp of womanhood, a boy breaching the threshold to manhood. Romance us with your interpretations of this tenuous beauty, these arrangements of organic sensuality.

The Portrait

 

Great portraiture such as that produced by Dorothea Lange, Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, Matthew Brady, Peter Hujar and Diane Arbus comprise one of the main pillars of the Pantheon of photographic arts.

The challenge of capturing the personality behind the person requires both technical know-how and an artist’s eye, combining technique, intuition and empathy. When done right, the unseen power of persona comes into focus and, as if by magic — personality seems to jump from the page. This month 1650 Gallery tips our hat to the power of people pictures, and welcomes your work in the blockbuster genre of photographic portraiture.

I have a long-standing addiction to pasta. More accurately, I am addicted to that slightly drowsy, completely relaxed feeling I have when I finish a beautiful Italian meal. My friends have been trying to get me to read Wheat Belly, but I’ve resisted for fear that I would end up having to give up my favorite pasta, whole wheat couscous. I cannot bear the thought. So, this next Call comes from San Francisco which has nothing to do with couscous, but the last time I made a Rice-A-Roni segue, I got email for weeks. So, my stream of consciousness led me to couscous. I know, random. Regardless, don’t miss this next Call…
