Isabella Ducrot "Russian Faces"
CUNY Graduate Center
This event has ended.
Isabella Ducrot "Russian Faces," will feature forty-two portraits executed in pencil, charcoal, watercolor, and pastel in the Exhibition Hallway. Inspired by the myriad cultural developments that informed Russian history from the nineteenth century through the Stalinist era, the artist invites viewers to contemplate the faces of its protagonists: remarkable men and women from the worlds of literature, music, art, and theatre. The subjects are linked by a profound national consciousness that nourished their creativity and gave them the courage to resist in their country's darkest hours.
