BERKELEY, CA.- The Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery has commissioned a photographic portrait of food pioneer Alice Waters, founder of the Chez Panisse Restaurant and Cafe, the Edible Schoolyard and champion of the Slow Food movement. The portrait was created by Dave Woody, the first-place winner of the museum’s 2009 Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition. It will be unveiled Aug. 26 at the University of California, Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive as a part of the 40th anniversary celebration of the restaurant’s founding. This presentation is the first for the Portrait Gallery that will take place outside of the museum; the portrait will be installed in Washington, D.C., during a presentation at the Portrait Gallery in late January 2012. “I am delighted to present this newly created portrait by Dave Woody taken in Alice Waters’ Edible Schoolyard,” said Martin E.
