Self-Portraits

Self-Portraits at Skarstedt Gallery. "...Once seen as a tool for self-promotion and notoriety, self-portraits are now a conceptual apparatus of history and are at the disposal of anyone who employs it to continue the ever-present mode of Post-Modernism. The approach to self-portraiture has been most frequently executed via four specific genres noted in art history and they are often categorized by the following iconographical themes: Glory, Desire, The Masquerade and Fading."
