Selfie - by the Artist

Just now does the Swedish National Museum have a exhibit at Konstakademien in Stockholm:

THE ARTIST - KONSTNÄREN
"Entrepreneur. Genius. Avant-Gardist. Norm-Breaker. Visionary. Traveler.
An exhibition about what it means to be an artist, today and historically. About roles, ideals and myths. About power structures and notions of gender, ethnicity, sexuality and class."

I went to the opening and realised that there was a lot of "Selfies" made by historical great artists and decided to sum up the well worth visit trough them:
