Annie Kevans @ Fine Art Society

In her many portrait series, Annie Kevans has always found new ways of presenting figures from the past, both the famous and the marginalised. From child stars to dictators, artists and the insane, Kevans imbues her subjects with a tangible humanity and sensuality. Her unusual portraits, which may or may not be based on historical documents, show the sitters as real people who both embody and reject our preconceptions about them and about the historical moments they represent. This exhibition presents a selection of work from several series including Women in the History of Art, WAMPAS Baby Stars, and The Muses of Jean Paul Gaultier.
