Description
Framing the Self: A Cultural History of Portraiture
Brandelyn Andres, PhD
Saturday, August 2, 2025 | 11 am – 12 pm
- This talk is in connection with our Face of Time exhibit in the SEG
- Location: Sedona Arts Center’s Special Exhibition Gallery
Through an examination of both self-portraits and depictions of others, this lecture charts the art historical evolution of the genre of portraiture. By examining artists’ intentions, social contexts, and visual choices, we will consider how images of people not only reflect concepts of self but also shape collective understandings of identity, status, and humanity. We can learn much about ourselves as we look into the eyes of others.
Images shown:
The Two Fridas, Frida Kahlo, 1939
Self-Portrait, Rembrandt van Rijn, 1659
