Last week to see: “The Self Assessed” curated by Cornelius Tittel at Galerie Max Hetzler, featuring works by Lorenzo Amos, Grant Falardeau, and Oliver Bak - whose works are also currently on view at Boros Collection.
Bringing together self-portraits from the 20th and 21st centuries, the exhibition explores identity as something unstable, performative, and continuously shifting. Across painting, sculpture, and photography, the show traces how the self-portrait moves beyond likeness toward gesture, presence, and the tension between self-perception and the gaze of others.
