Framed Contemporary Realism Paintings
Although styles outside of realism tend to get the most attention in the art world, framed contemporary realism art is still going strong. The realistic approach is a great choice for wanting to portray a specific item, especially one that is well-known or easily recognizable.
Realism is a surprisingly new school of thought in art. Throughout much of art history, the tendency was for artists to portray idealized or romanticized versions of their subjects. Realism began as a reaction to the perceived excesses of the Romantics, and the style continues to influence framed contemporary realism art pieces today. Jean-Francois Millet was an example of classic French Realism with his “Haystacks: Autumn,” while “Allen Street” by George Luks is an example of early American Realism. Probably one of the most famous early examples of Realism is “Christina’s World” by Andrew Wyeth.
American Realism continued into the twentieth century with the painters of the Ashcan School, which included the aforementioned George Luks. John French Sloan’s “Self-portrait” is a prominent instance of the Ashcan School. Everett Shinn was another member of the Ashcan School who achieved renown with paintings like “Cross Streets of New York.” This group also influenced other painters working at the time, such as George Bellows, Gifford Beal, and Edward Hopper.
Many framed contemporary art paintings continue to be created by today’s artists. Eric Fischl’s “Bad Boy” is one of his many popular Realist works. Philip Pearlstein is another Realist painter who primarily paints nudes like “Male and Female Nudes with Red and Purple Drape” and “Two Models in a Window with Cast Iron Toys.”
