Jimmie Durham

Self-Portrait Pretending to Be Haim Steinbach as Played by Haim Steinbach, 2008
Photography , 81 x 61 cm
ink, paper

This photograph is part of Jimmie Durham’s self-portrait series, even though the only way in which this image can be read as a self-portrait is in its tricky title. Haim Steinbach is a Israel-born artist living in New York and a friend of Durham’s.
