The art of portraiture has been as fundamental to art history as breathing is to life. Portraits document our history and provide a glimpse into the mind of the artist as well as the subject. On August 31st Breakneck Gallery will be presenting it's twist on the art of portraiture with "Distorted Portraits". A well-executed portrait is expected to show the inner essence of the subject from the artist's point of view, and the artists in this show have non-traditional points of view. Whether using twisting facial renderings, exploding features, or whimsical drawings this showcase will be a collection of creepy, twisted, and/or off kilter portraiture. Featuring works by Nathan Kemr, CHOD, Sean Burns, Billy Ludwig, Oliver App, Eric Kaplan, Liz Adams and a handfull of our other favorite local artists.
There will be an opening reception Saturday August 31st from 6pm-10pm with food, drinks, and as always ART!!!
There will be a 21+ after party held at the Spitfire Saloon 1539 W.117th St.
