Photorealism in the Digital Age
Louis K. Meisel’s lively text traces the evolution of Photorealism over more than four decades, placing it in the context of concurrent art movements and illuminating its relationship to photography, Pop art, and other modes. He highlights the contributions that the Photorealism have made to art history, namely, legitimizing the use of the camera to capture information for a painting, embracing digital technology as a creative tool, and both rediscovering and inventing techniques for transferring and painting images onto the canvas.
