The idea of this exhibition is to approach the historical theme of
self-portraits and to bring it into a contemporary art context. A
self-portrait is a representation of an artist, drawn, painted,
photographed, or sculpted by the artist. Although self-portraits have
been made by artists since the earliest times, it is not until the
Early Renaissance in the mid 1400s that artists can be frequently
identified depicting themselves as either the main subject, or as
important characters in their work. With better and cheaper mirrors,
and the advent of the panel portrait, many painters, sculptors and
printmakers tried some form of self-portraiture... In this respect it
will be an interesting and new experience to show the vision of the
"self-portrait" by contemporary urban artists from all over the world.
