What is the Purpose of a Painted Portrait in the Age of the Selfie?

Charles Justin AM – architect, art collector and JAHM co-founder – has entered a painted ultramarine, blue monochrome self-portrait in this year’s Archibald Prize. It is titled SELFIE: Self Portrait as a Variation on the Theme of Joseph Kosuth’s One and Three Chairs.

The talk will explore the purpose of a painted portrait in an age where 92 million selfies are posted online every day. In this context, his examination of his self-portrait will speculate on what is relevant today in a painted representation of an individual. Is it how they look, who they are or what they have done?
