About this Event

Join us for a talk about our latest exhibition by Fine and Applied Art Manager Anna Robertson.

Centre Stage: Portraits from a Modern World explores how artists use portraiture to capture far more than a likeness. Through pose, expression, clothing and setting, these works reveal personality, identity and the many ways we choose to present ourselves to the world. Themes that feel just as relevant today in an age shaped by image, celebrity and social media.

Some portraits are bold, dramatic and full of confidence, while others offer quieter, more intimate moments. Together they reveal how every portrait tells a story, not only about the person being painted but also about the artist.
