The exhibition explores the theme of self-portraiture through a selection of more than twenty works by contemporary artists of international renown from the MASI collection. From the documented performances of Marina Abramović and Gina Pane, to the iconic photographic self-portraits of Ilse Bing and Florence Henri, alongside works by Urs Lüthi, the videos of Silvano Repetto and Gian Paolo Minelli’s self-portraits, the exhibition highlights the different ways in which artists have addressed the theme of self-representation.
The result is a complex, nuanced exploration of identity and self-perception.
