About The Work
Chuck Close's photograph of Al Gore is part of America: Now and Here, a project by Eric Fischl, who invited friends and fellow artists to submit a work of art reflecting their points of view and hopes for a post-9/11 America. Close's deep respect for Gore is apparent in the dignified manner in which he depicts the former politician and dedicated environmental activist in this portrait.
