The Griffin Museum is excited to bring Ruben Natal San Miguel to Lafayette City Center to celebrate his magnum opus, Women R Beautiful. This solo exhibition featuring the portraits of women Natal San Miguel crosses paths with are stunning. Frank and honest, the women are confident, self aware and direct with their gaze into the lens. This exhibition is featured during Women’s History Month, and we are excited to showcase the diversity and breadth of the female gaze and shared experience of portraiture at its most pure.
