Face to Face: Isaiah Zagar's Mosaicked Portraits

Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens presents “Face to Face: Isaiah Zagar’s Mosaicked Portraits,” an exhibition highlighting the inspirations behind Isaiah Zagar’s artwork. The intimate works include people who have influenced his life, work, and world, as well as strangers and individuals who captured his imagination. Embodying the broader spirit of Folk Art, collaboration, and community, the portraits are composed from fragments of tile, mirror, folk artwork, and other materials, creating a meeting place between artist and subject. Through this collection, visitors can experience Zagar’s mosaics up close, connecting with the people and stories that shaped his art.
