Self-Portrait with Salvator Rosa, Albano Alonso, Ed 1/3. 2002

About the Item

Alfonso Albano, Self-portrait with Salvator Rosa. Ed 1/3, 2002. Perforated RC paper. São Paulo, Brasil, 1964. In his photographs, installations, projections and objects, Albano Afonso explores light, the intangible element that makes vision of the world possible. Afonso investigates the anatomy of light: its intensity or softness, its ability to illuminate and darken, its sources, its symbolic and utilitarian uses, and its beauty. In addition to light, it is time and, consequently, movement, the other elements from which he builds his story. In the "Self-Portrait as Light" series, he further explores his own identity reflected in windows and mirrors with the camera's flash on, effectively replacing his head with a stunning explosion of pure light. Also in his recent mobile sculptures of bronze pieces are the self-portrait and time the reasons for his interest. Albano Afonso is also an active figure in the cultural scene of Sao Paulo. Together with his wife, the artist Sandra Cinto, he runs the Atelier Fidalga, a space for workshops and residences for artists that has become one of the places for meeting and thinking about most active contemporary art in Latin America. Albano Afonso's work is represented in the 21c Museum Foundation's collections. Louisville. Kentucky, USA; cab. Art Center, Brussels, Belgium; Gilberto Chateaubriand Collection of the Museum of Contemporary Art of Rio de Janeiro; ARCO Foundation Collection, Spain; Galician Center for Contemporary Art, Santiago de Compostela, Spain; Pedro Barrié de la Maza Foundation, Vigo, Spain; Museum of Modern Art of São Paulo, Brazil and the University of Essex Collection of Latin American Art, England, among others.

  • Photograph Self-Portrait by Sam Taylor-Wood
    Located in Atlanta, GA
    A framed C-print photography by British artist Sam Taylor-Wood (1967-). Entitled "Self-Portrait in a Single-Breasted Suit with Hare", the print was made in 2001 and its unique in this size at 9" h x 6" w. Presented in a wood frame. Provenance: Matthew Marks Gallery, NYC (label verso). Artist Biography (courtesy of Guggenheim Musuem Collection) Sam Taylor-Wood B. 1967, LONDON Sam Taylor-Wood was born in London in 1967. At the age of sixteen, she enrolled in an art school in Hastings, later moving back to London to attend Goldsmiths College. After graduating in 1990, she worked as a bartender and as a dresser at the Royal Opera House; the latter experience would influence her work’s unabashed theatricality. Originally a sculptor, she began working in photography, film, and video in the early 1990s. Her first film, 16mm (1993), consists of an isolated female figure gyrating to a steady beat. She explored similar intersections between video, dance, theater, music, film, and video in subsequent works, including Killing Time (1994), in which seemingly bored actors wait their turn to lip-synch the lines of different characters from Richard Strauss’s Electra. Her photographic work also finds points of intersection with other mediums. The title of Five Revolutionary Seconds (1995–98), for example, refers to her creation of a panoramic image by rotating her camera around a room over that period of time; the resulting image has a narrative quality despite being a static image. In recent years, Taylor-Wood has engaged ideas of celebrity culture in her work. Third Party (1999–2000), a seven-screen video installation at the Hayward Gallery in London, featured pop singer Marianne Faithful and actor Ray Winstone in different one- and two-person scenes of flirtation and ennui, creating a party-like environment in the gallery where the viewer is privy to these personal exchanges. Equal parts pathos and humor, the two-minute film Pietà (2001), in which the artist attempts to suspend the Hollywood actor and hard-living icon Robert Downey, Jr. in her arms, also evokes the well-known art historical subject. Her video David (2004) evokes similar connotations and intimately unveils the much-photographed dynamic soccer icon David Beckham in deep sleep. Time and speed are often centerpieces of her videos, whether the rapid acceleration of a bowl of fruit’s decay process in Still Life (2001) or the illusion of frozen time in The Last Century (2006), for which the actors are in fact filmed in real time but remain impossibly still. Taylor-Wood’s first narrative film, Love You More (2008), borrows its title from a song by the 70s punk band Buzzcocks and chronicles the story of two teenagers who hear the recently released song together in a record store. Since her first show, Killing Time at the Showroom in London in 1994, Taylor-Wood has had solo exhibitions at White Cube in London (1995, 2001, 2004, and 2008), Kunsthalle Zürich (1997), Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C. (1999), Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid (2000), Centre National de la Photographie in Paris (2001), Musée d’Art Contemporain de Montréal (2002), Russian Museum in St. Petersburg (2004), Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney (2006), Museum of Contemporary Art in Cleveland (2007), and Museum of Contemporary Art in Houston...
