Self Portrait 2007

Ukrainian artist Alexander Roitburd's 2007 "Self Portrait" depicts a nude, middle-aged man against a dark green background. The portrait is rendered in a realistic style with a focus on detail, particularly the subject's skin and the way it absorbs light. The artist's choice to depict himself in such a vulnerable and intimate way, revealing his body and age, is a characteristic of Roitburd's work, often referencing social and cultural issues of his time. The artwork is a powerful example of self-reflection and vulnerability in art.
