Description of Pictures: Press preview for the new exhibition, “The Outwin 2016: American Portraiture Today” and announcement of the winner of the Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition
WHO:
* Kim Sajet, director, National Portrait Gallery
* Dorothy Moss, associate curator of painting and sculpture and competition director
* The award-winning artists: Jess T. Dugan, St. Louis; Jessica Todd Harper, Merion Station, Pa.; Cynthia Henebry, Richmond, Va.; Sedrick Huckaby, Fort Worth, Texas; Daniel James McInnis, Perrysburg, Ohio; Joel Daniel Phillips, Oakland, Calif.; and Amy Sherald, Baltimore

On March 11, the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery will announce the names of the award-winning artists of the exhibition resulting from the fourth Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition. Seven artworks were shortlisted for the competition. The first-prize winner receives $25,000 and a commission to create a portrait of a living individual for the museum’s permanent collection. Other cash prizes will be awarded for selected works.

“The Outwin 2016: American Portraiture Today” features 43 artworks and will run from March 12 through Jan. 8, 2017. This year’s competition received more than 2,500 entries in a variety of visual-arts media, including sculpture, mixed media, photographs, paintings and drawings.

Held every three years, the Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition is made possible by a gift from volunteer and benefactor Virginia Outwin Boochever (1920–2005). The competition invites artists all over America to investigate the art of contemporary portraiture. The resulting exhibition celebrates excellence and innovation, with a strong focus on the variety of portrait media used by artists today.

2016 photos: Seven relatively short trips this year: two Civil War Trust conference (Gettysburg, PA and West Point, NY, with a side-trip to New York City), my 11th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including sites in Utah, Nevada, and California), a quick trip to Michigan for Uncle Wayne's funeral, two additional trips to New York City, and a Civil Rights site trip to Alabama during the November elections. Being in places where people died to preserve the rights of minority voters made the Trumputin election even more depressing. Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Number of photos taken this year: just over 610,000.
