Exhibitions

This exhibition will showcase nearly 80 portrait works by Catherine O'Pee, along with a selection of portraits from the National Collection of Scotland, prompting reflection on the subjects, motivations, and methods of portraiture. Viewers will have the opportunity to get up close to O'Pee's mentors and collaborators, the queer community, children, surfers, high school football players, and the political figures she portrays in her work, while also appreciating O'Pee's self-portraits. The exhibition will take viewers on a journey through the artist's 30-year career, exploring her interpretations of family, intimacy, and the home, as well as her reflections on politics, identity, and power structures. "Catherine O'Pee: Being Seen" will encompass the artist's first major work, "Being and Having" (1991), and her humanistic portraits of LGBTQ+ friends inspired by court painter Hans Holbein, culminating in her Baroque-style artist portraits. Opi's portrait works collectively construct a new narrative, challenging viewers to reflect on the most frequently depicted figures in artworks and those neglected groups.
