Identity in Art

A few definitions of Identity Self-image or self-concept. Who people take themselves to be. The way a person or a group perceives themselves in relation to the world, including other people and groups Who a person is, or the qualities of a person or group which make them different from others.

How do the following Artworks show Identity?

Who is he?

What about her?

There are many kinds of Identity – Emotional, Physical, Cultural, Social, etc. You have to find the way to show that Identity through your art.

How much do you hide? Do you reveal?

William RanneyWilliam Ranney (1813–1857) Veterans of 1776 Returning from the War, 1848

Is there something that can represent you and not be your picture?

The founders of DNA 11 realized that the regalia of identity. Their service, DNA 11, creates personalized art pieces based on DNA or finger prints.DNA 11 This ushers in a new form of democratizing art: Instead of the artist and his uniqueness, the art piece solely showcases the uniqueness of the owner. It is an ironic twist that the idea of uniqueness is being mass produced

Cindy Sherman In Sherman's distinctive self-portraits she is dressed up and made up to portray hundreds of different women and occasionally men, but never herself. She says her art deals with female stereotypes, and they are portraits not of how she sees herself but how she sees men seeing women.
