\"Out<\/p>\n

This exhibition at Artspace Buffalo of portraits by Gary Wolfe<\/a> represents a two year collaboration between the the artist, and the Lt. Matt Urban Center\u2019s homeless services department, the Hope Center, and a partnership with the Restoration Society\u2019s Harbor House.<\/p>\n

The work seeks to raise public awareness around the issue of homelessness in the City of Buffalo by literally putting faces of real persons on this chronic community concern.<\/p>\n

Each portrait is painted on tar paper in oil and encaustic and represents a person who has been or is now chronically homeless in City of Buffalo.<\/p>\n

Each model was interviewed and has provided a quote to go along with her or his portrait. Models were paid a sitting fee.<\/p>\n

Thirty percent of all sales will go to the Hope Center toward the Hope Gardens, a 12 unit residency for chronically homeless women that is currently being constructed on the East Side of Buffalo.<\/p>\n

The exhibit runs from August 2 through the August 30.<\/p>\n
