Where: National Portrait Gallery
When: through November 30, 2012
Dave Woody, the winner of the 2009 Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition, is the photographer. It's a lovely composition; Waters is pictured beneath a mulberry tree. Its fruit is too delicate to ship, so one assumes this is a nod to her dedication to eating local cuisine. I'm all for this, but I would note that it's a lot easier to do this in California than in North Dakota, especially in the winter. For the fact that she has been part of a movement that encourages people to buy from local suppliers and supports farmers' markets, I am truly grateful.
Verdict: You can easily see this along with any other show on display. I saw it along with the "Recent Acquisitions," as they're in the same hallway.
