Addressing gaps in collections and exhibitions with The Beaney.
How to address underrepresentation and diversity is a question that sits at the heart of The Beaney’s approach to collecting and exhibiting portraits. By shining a light on their Mirror Mirror exhibition, which included loans from the National Portrait Gallery and three new portrait commissions of publicly nominated local heroes, this film shares some of The Beaney's approaches to creating a more inclusive collection.
This film is an ART DOCS production.
