The portrait has reached our times by expanding its definition. With new concepts, techniques and languages, the most recent art deploys multiple possibilities for producing images of the human condition and exploring the complex notion of identity, as well as the social implications that it entails. The works on display come from the "la Caixa" Collection of contemporary art and, gathered here, they return our gaze as a social mirror in which we ask ourselves those eternally human questions: Who are they? How do I see them? Who am I? How do they see me?
