Self-Portrait by Chuck Close is a 2012 silkscreen produced in an edition of 80, measuring 66 1/2 x 55 inches. The large-scale print presents the artist’s face constructed from a grid of vividly colored cells, each containing abstract shapes and layered hues. From a distance, the fragmented units coalesce into a highly detailed likeness; up close, the image dissolves into a mosaic of painterly marks and geometric forms. This interplay between abstraction and representation is central to Close’s practice. Following the physical limitations he experienced after 1988, the grid method became both a conceptual framework and a practical strategy, emphasizing process, perception, and the mechanics of image-making.

What is photorealism?
Photorealism is a genre of art or artistic movement that involves drawing, painting, and other graphic media in which the artist carefully studies a photograph and attempts to reproduce it as realistically as possible in another medium. While the term can broadly describe any artwork created in this manner, it specifically refers to a group of painters and paintings in the U.S. art movement that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
