Yvi Magazine #6: Portrait
For centuries, the portrait has been an important element in art. It used to take the form of a painting, a sculpture or a photograph of someone’s head or torso, or another artistic presentation of a person or a group. Thanks in part to the invention and the development of photography, the portrait became what it is today: much more than a representation of a person. It has become a means of making a personality visible, make a statement about a situation, about the environment, or about a social or historical context. This sixth edition of Yvi Magazine is about this breadth and depth of the portrait.
