It was in the mid70s that Cindy Sherman began making her earliest works, in which she explored various manipulations of her own persona. She began by experimenting with makeup and costumes, getting dressed up for parties and surprising her friends. She then moved on to photograph herself in the various personas she had created, producing highly inventive but somewhat more primitive versions of the seminal work for which she would later become known, the Untitled Film Stills series. It was during this early period that Sherman created A Play of Selvesa visual tale of a young woman overwhelmed by various alteregos that compete inside of her, and her final conquering of selfdoubt. Acted out with 16 separate characters, these 72 photographic assemblages mark Sherman's earliest explorations of herselfassubject in a series of staged photographs. Published here for the first time, these photographs include hundreds of shots of the artist costumed as various characters in dozens of poses. Organized in a fouract 'play' with an elaborate, handwritten script, the individual images were cut by the artist from original blackandwhite prints. Preface by Cindy Sherman.
