Picturing the Self: Changing Views of the Subject in Visual Culture

Book Title :Picturing the Self: Changing Views of the Subject in Visual Culture

Ideas of selfhood, from Descartes to postmodern notions of the fragmented and decentred self, have been crucial to the visual arts. Gen Doy explores this relationship, primarily in relation to contemporary art but also going back to the early modern period and Holbein's Ambassadors. She argues that the importance of subjectivity for art goes far beyond selfportraits, exploring the self and identityboth the artist's and the viewer'sand seeks a way of thinking the self that goes beyond both Cartesian and postmodern approaches to subjecthood. She looks too at work and consumption selfpresentation photography and the theatre of the self the marginalizedbeggars and asylum seekersand "the real me." A wide range of artists, including Claude Cahun, Tracey Emin, Jeff Wall, Barbara Kruger, Eugene Palmer and Karen Knorr are discussed, as well as historical material from earlier periods.
