The Individual Portrait. Self-Portrait

Summary/Abstract: Along with Rembrandt, Caravaggio, Goya, Delacroix or Van Gogh, they are among the artists who have repeatedly represented the features of their own physiognomy. The individualized portrait covers a long experience of representing the human physiognomy, from over six centuries. Between understanding and condensing the experiences related to the atmosphere of a character (James Whistler, Vincent van Gogh, Frida Kahlo) and the polemical gesture that denotes revolt, sarcasm and indifference towards a famous character or traditional artistic values, the portrait oscillated between a multitude of aesthetic and conceptual formulas, in which the demand for the individuality of the model has become a matter of pure personal artistic opinion.
