The self-portrait is undated but may have been made in the late 1920s when Botts was a printmaking fellow at the prestigious Yaddo artist colony. Botts presents himself as a dapper draughtsman with his eyebrows arched over his clear gaze. Stylistic references point to self-portraits by earlier artists including James McNeill Whistler. Rather than describe everything about his appearance Botts relies on loose lines, clear description and select dark lines.

From the portfolio "New York Ten"
This work claims to be a self-portrait, although we don't actually see what we typically expect in a portrait - a face. One of the trademarks of Pop Art is the absence of the artist's hand - many of them wanted their work to look machine-made or mass-produced. Pop Art, as well as many other art movements throughout the ages, often prompted the question "What is art?" This work also invites the question "What is a portrait?"
[Gallery label text]
The self-portrait has been redefined by a number of artists in contemporary times. In Dine’s case, the substitution of a bathrobe for the artist’s face is a witty twist on an old theme, simultaneously conveying anonymity and “cozy familiarity,” in the words of one writer. Like Warhol’s Campbell’s soup can, Dine’s bathrobe has become a signature image of Pop art of the Sixties.
In addition to his unconventional approach to self-portraiture, Dine’s printing technique “breaks the rules” as well. Rather than being centered on the paper, the image is asymmetrically placed, which creates a cropped effect.

Based on a 1989 painting by Katz.
Alex Katz says of his artistic influences, "I've got as much Old Masters as I do movies." In Green Jacket, Katz paints himself in the tradition of Baroque court portraiture. As the court painter for the Spanish throne in the 17th century, Velazquez cultivated a style of portraiture that displayed the power, pretension and grace valued at that time. Katz contemporizes his self-portrait by depicting himself in his green athletic jacket; clearly an American man of the late twentieth century.

Based on a 1963 painting by Katz.
This print is based on a very large painting from 1962-63 of the same name. Katz's goal was to create a self-portrait that truly did subvert the traditional genre. "I wanted to see if I could paint one that was not narcissistic, that was not soulful or sentimental." His answer was to create a persona that was aloof, without evident emotional or psychological baggage. This resulted in the Stranger, the figure in this image. According to the artist, the title Passing has double meaning. It refers to the momentary experience of seeing a stranger--anonymous, blank--passing in the crowd, as well as Katz's attempt at passing himself off as that Stranger.

Based on a 1986 painting by Katz.
Alex Katz seeks "self-indulgence in a big art form, rather than self-indulgence in personal feelings." He calls his approach to art a "high style" one that is impersonal, grand, sophisticated, and representative of a specific moment in time, yet timeless. Katz delights in the appearance of faces and bodies divested of meaning or content. He strives to create images that are open to multiple interpretations rather than restricting viewers to a single response or understanding of his work.
Katz's style, or his use of the formal elements of light, color, and scale, is as much the subject of his portraits as are the sitters. His flat, broad areas of color and compressed spaces cause the viewer's eyes to skim over the surfaces of these portraits, never to penetrate in search of an interior life. Katz wants the viewer to experience and value the act of seeing without getting caught up in a search for meaning, as he has stated, "I can't think of anything more exciting than the surface of things. Just appearance."

Clayton Pond, a second-generation Pop artist, transformed everyday objects into icons. Color and texture played a key role in his work. His electric color combinations and his experimental technique of adding a layer of high gloss varnish to the surface of his prints create a lustrous effect.

John Menihan created more than 100 lithographs and was one of the most prominent and popular artists in upstate New York. Originally inspired by the lithographs of Walter Cassebeer (see Downington at the right), his technical knowledge of the medium was learned from master lithographer Bolton Brown (see stone for Tioga River in the case on the right). Ron Netsky, art historian, whose work is also on view in this exhibition, has written extensively on Menihan.
Menihan was also a portrait painter, graphic designer, and muralist. In 1947, he won an unprecedented four First Prizes – in oil painting, watercolor, printmaking, and drawing – in the Rochester-Finger Lakes Exhibition.
