From Nature: Realist Works in MMoCA's Collection


September 16, 2009 - July 18, 2010

Madison

The exhibition is the last in a three-part series of exhibitions that surveys the major styles of modernism in the visual arts. Although based upon perceptual observations of the world with the artist “working from nature,” modernist realism distinguishes itself from past practice. The artist may, for example, simplify detail, create irrational juxtapositions to produce a “magic realism,” or derive works from the sharp-focused realism of photographs.
