Marisa Portolese

Our August (and undeniably august) guest is Marisa Portolese. Marisa is an artist who works with photography, often creating portraits of women that both question and borrow from conventions of representation. She recently spent time as an artist-in-residence of the McCord Museum combing through the William Notman Photographic Archives, and is currently presenting an exhibition at the museum based on this research: In The Studio With Notman.
