Exposiciones actuales: Man Ray Portraits - Man Ray Portraits is the first major museum retrospective of the influential artist’s photographic portraits. Featuring over 150 vintage prints from his career in America and Paris taken between 1916 and 1968, the exhibition highlights Man Ray’s central position amongst the leading artists of the Dada and Surrealist movements. The exhibition includes Man Ray’s revolutionary photographic techniques such as solarisation and early experiments with colour. His subjects include friends, lovers and contemporaries, ranging from Kiki de Montparnasse and Lee Miller to Pablo Picasso and Catherine Deneuve. Until 26 May.
Susan Aldworth: The Portrait Anatomised - Produced as part of a commission for Guy’s and St. Thomas’s Hospital in Westminster, the portraits by Susan Aldworth in this display depict three individuals with epilepsy. Expanding a notion of contemporary portraiture, the artist appropriates the illustrative vocabulary of medical science in her innovative printmaking process and in doing so asks how this material corresponds or contrasts with the subject’s sense of self. Until 1 September. Alexander Bassano: Victorian Photographer - Celebrating the life and work of this popular London-based studio photographer. Including his iconic portraits of Queen Victoria and Earl Kitchener. From 25 March until 1 October.
