"Every portrait stands at the crossroads of a dream and a reality," wrote Georges Perec.
Portraiture has always fascinated. It captures a gaze, a posture, a fleeting emotion, or an entire personality. Full-length, from behind, close-up, imagined, or frontal—each artist projects their own vision of humanity onto it. Sometimes a faithful reflection, sometimes an interpretation, a portrait speaks as much about its subject as it does about its creator.
In this selection of 50 portraits, faces emerge, withdraw, challenge. They suggest stories, stir emotions, and question our own relationship with others. Step into this dialogue between artists and human figures, where every line, every shadow, every glimmer of light reveals something unseen.
