About the Exhibit

The RSM Art Gallery and bkprojects are proud to present Face to Face, a selection of portraits created by Artists working at Vinfen’s Gateway Arts in Brookline. The organization, now in its 50th year, is an internationally acclaimed studio art center, gallery, and store supporting meaningful lives and careers in art for adults with disabilities. These portraits are done from imagination, memory, and/or photographs, with careful attention to specific details, such as a distinct gesture, a closely observed pattern, or a bold bright palette. These details build upon one another to tell stories of the connection between each artist and their subject(s).
