Cultures in Motion: Brando Himself October 27, 2008

Marlon Brando comes to life in “Brando Himself,” a part of the Portrait Gallery’s Cultures in Motion series. “Brando Himself” is presented with the exhibition “Ballyhoo! Posters as Portraiture.”

The piece—a compilation of Brando’s own quotations—creates an intimate portrayal of the iconic star in his own words, revealing one of the most complex figures of American film history and features actor Edward Gero as Brando and the Portrait Gallery’s Jewell Robinson as his interviewer.

This program is located in the Nan Tucker McEvoy Auditorium. The performance is free, but seating is limited. For reservations, please call (202) 633-8520 or e-mail NPGPublicPrograms@si.edu.
