Deborah De Robertis

Deborah De Robertis (born February 12, 1984) is a performance artist and photographer from Luxembourg.

De Robertis was born in Luxembourg on 12 February 1984.

In 2014, media attention was initially drawn to her when she executed "Mirror of Origin," an impromptu performance in which she exposed her genitals at the Musée d'Orsay in front of Gustave Courbet's painting L'Origine du monde.

In 2016, she posed nude at the Musée d'Orsay in front of Édouard Manet's Olympia.

In 2018, De Robertis organised a happening during a yellow vests movement demonstration in Paris.

Along with four other women dressed as Marianne, the symbolic figure of the French Republic, covered with silver paint and bare-chested, she stood silently facing a riot squad.

She studied at the School of Graphic Research in Belgium and as of May 2020 was living in Brussels.
