The Artist

John Rivers Coplans was a British artist, art writer, curator, and museum director. A veteran of World War II and a photographer, he emigrated to the United States in 1960 and had many exhibitions in Europe and North America. A pioneer of self-portraiture, John Coplans took large format black-and-white close-ups of his bare body that sent ripples of shock, recognition and praise through the international art world. His work addressed one of society’s few remaining taboos: the process of ageing and physical decrepitude.
