self-portrait with webcam
Josef Klammer (AT)
Just like everywhere else in the world, a host of webcams have been set up in public spaces all over Austria too. Klammer, his trusty laptop at the ready, takes up position in front of such a device and captures images of himself. This is Klammer’s contradictory answer to the greatWestern tradition of the self-portrait, a response totally lacking in the expected pomp and melodrama and one that transfers this genre into the zone of friction between the public and private spheres.
