Through essays by leading art historians, the exhibition catalog explores the artist’s self-portrait as a shifting image of identity, fiction, and self-awareness—from the Renaissance to Symbolism, from Romanticism to Divisionism, and into contemporary multimedia practices.

The art book is structured thematically, with sections devoted to the myth of the artist, the symbolism of the mirror, masks and vanity, invisible identities, narrative self-fashioning, and the transformation of the self through performance and allegory. It examines the artist not only as creator, but also as subject, myth, and mirror of society.

Featuring works by Bellini, Tintoretto, Velázquez, Rembrandt, Titian, de Chirico, Bacon, and many more, the book offers over 500 pages of a sweeping visual and intellectual journey through over 500 years of artistic introspection and representation.
