Slideshow: "Portraiture Now: Staging the Self"

The National Portrait Gallery presents at Americas Society Portraiture Now: Staging the Self from June 10 to October 17, 2015.

Portraiture Now: Staging the Self features the work of six contemporary U.S. Latino artists—David Antonio Cruz, Carlee Fernandez, María Martínez-Cañas, Rachelle Mozman, Karen Miranda Rivadeneira, and Michael Vasquez—who present identities theatrically, challenging notions of identity and traditions that fix people in space and time.
