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 Pixel Art?
Pixel Art is a form of digital art created by placing individual pixels, similar to assembling a mosaic where each small piece contributes to a larger image. The style is often associated with nostalgia, as it draws on the techniques used in early video game graphics. Pixel art has seen a resurgence in popularity, both as a nod to retro aesthetics and as a distinct artistic style in modern digital art.
