Sobre a exposição
“A exposição ID é um encontro com poéticas bastante distintas, desenvolvidas na trajetória artística de cada um desses oito artistas, quase todos residentes no estado do Rio de Janeiro. As obras aqui reunidas nos oferecem um recorte da produção de pintura em retratos do século XXI, apresentando trabalhos desse gênero que está presente ao longo de quase toda a História da Arte.” (Christiane Laclau)
