Episode 11: The Power of Portraiture

In this episode, host and K Contemporary gallery owner Doug Kacena explores modern portraiture with artists David Kassan and Thomas “Detour” Evans. Both artists take on deeply relevant and moving subjects: Kassan recently painted a series of Holocaust survivors, and Detour brings issues of social justice and representation to life in murals and paintings. The three discuss the value of empathy, compassion, authenticity, and capturing a subject’s essence in modern portraits. Learn more about Thomas "Detour" Evans' work at iamdetour.com and @detour303.
