i once saw a cartoon that distilled all art down into the idea that art used to be “look at this!” and with modern art all art became “look at me!”

there’s definitely something compelling about the self-portrait. artistic navel-gazing. a ready and willing model. the chance to cast yourself in the grand tapestry of history. and to have lots and lots of people look at you as a work of art.
