Key Dates: Deadline: March 2, 2010 Like in the classical artistic media, self-portraying takes also in film & videoart a prominent position, the own "self" is not only representing the cheapest model, but self-reflecting belongs basically to the essential processes and activities of an artist. Thus, there are good reasons why artists self-portraits can often be counted to the best and most intimate works of an artist, at all.
