Culture of the Selfie is an in-depth art-historical overview of 
self-portraiture, using a set of theories from visual studies, 
narratology, media studies, psychotherapy, and political principles. 
Collecting information from various fields, juxtaposing them on the 
historical time-line of artworks, the book focuses on space in 
self-portraits, shared between the person self-portraying and the 
viewer. What is the missing information of the transparent relationship 
to the self and what kind of world appears behind each selfie? As the 
‘world behind one’s back’ is gradually taking larger place in the visual 
field, the book dwells on a capacity of selfies to master reality, the 
inter-mediate way and, in a measure, oneself.
