With Self Portraits: From 1800 to the Present, Philippe Ségalot and Morgane Guillet have curated their ultimate collection of self-portraits, alternating between iconic and lesser- known figures whose portraits deeply moved them. The book unfolds chronologically. Page after page, the reader is immersed in a real- life gallery where the works can be viewed at scale without any other distraction — an intimate journey across art history through self-portraiture. The sharp selection of works embraces a variety of mediums, from traditional painting to photography, neon or found objects and so increasingly as we approach the present, demonstrating how artists continue to redefine the genre. While some pieces don’t necessarily picture the artists themselves, they all represent their personal interpretation of what a self-portrait can be, show what they chose to reveal, how they wished to be seen, and how they viewed their own reflection through their art. This volume is introduced by an introspective text from Robert Storr, the former Dean of Yale School of Art. With more than sixty carefully selected self-portraits to analyze, readers will be able to admire some of the art world’s most magnificent artworks, from Claude Monet, Félix Vallotton, and Gustave Caillebotte to David Hammons, Elizabeth Peyton, and Steven Shearer.
