Rivaling Reality. 60 Years of Photorealism (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

This book pays homage to the illusory power of painting and at the same time takes a worldwide tour through the everyday culture of the modern age: images of vehicles with gleaming chrome in middle-class residential areas, brightly coloured candies, shimmering lipstick cases, deserted fast-food restaurants and garish advertisements - they all captivate through their technical brilliance and astounding precision, which seeks to compete with photography while consciously turning away from abstraction.
