Portrait by ARNOLD NEWMAN
1916-2006

"The physical image of the subject and the personality traits that image reflects are the most important aspects, but alone they are not enough…We must also show the subject’s relationship to his world either by fact or by graphic symbolism."

- NEWMAN

 

Portrait by TOM CASALINI 

"Arnold Newman is credited with creating 'environmental portraiture' – an approach I explore extensively in my work. Often, the most evocative portrait is one that captures a relationship – the relationship between a person and his or her individual environment. A portrait of an artist can include the strong interrelationship between themselves and their work in a very literal way."
