Summary: Photorealism (Super realism) reintroduced straightforward representation into an art world dominated by Pop Art, Minimalism, Land Art, and Performance Art. Often misunderstood as being overtly traditional, artists at the vanguard of this important movement were trailblazers. Use of the camera as the foundation of painterly expression is common today, but in the 1970s Photorealists were embarking on a groundbreaking way of seeing and depicting the world. Drawing on major public and private collections, the book features works by the masters of Photorealism. Along with numerous illustrations, the book also includes an introductory essay by noted artist and writer Richard Kalina, and an in-depth essay by Terrie Sutlan, focusing on photorealistic watercolors and works on paper. -- Includes work by: John Baeder, Robert Bechtle, Charles Bell, Roberto Bernardi, Tom Blackwell, Anthony Brunelli, Hilo Chen, Chuck Close, Davis Cone, Robert Cottingham, Randy Dudley, Don Eddy, Richard Estes, Audrey Flack, Franz Gertsch, Robert Gniewek, Ralph Goings, Don Jacot, John Kacere, Ron Kleemann, Peter Maier, Richard McLean, Jack Mendenhall, Bertrand Meniel, Robert Neffson, Yigal Ozeri, David Parrish, Rod E. Penner, Randall Rosenthal, John Salt, Ben Schonzeit, and Raphaella Spence.
