REMEMBERING FORSELF-PORTRAYAL. FROM POSTMODERN ABSENCE OF CANON TO GENRE AMBIVALENCE AND DECLINE

Journal Title: Revista Universitara de Sociologie - Year 2019, Vol 0, Issue 1

Abstract

The phenomenon of self-portrayal resulting from accumulations and developments during the Italian Renaissance period is under discussion in this text through the optics of Postmodernity. Changes that have occurred with the progress of technique in mirror positioning - auxiliary equipment in self-portrayal – have led to a radical change in the ways of creating and perceiving of self-portrait. Conditionally transmitted in self-portrayal, the "Casimir Effect" helps to understand the notion of self-portrayal decline. Postmodern self-portrayal represents not only the creator but paradoxically it includes the viewer within itself too, in a more general sense, its potential audience as well in one with the events in which it is encompassed as a phenomenon.
