The Griffin Museum brings 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.
