Art Movements / Hyperrealism




HYPERREALISM



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Origin: 1970s
Pioneers: Carole Feuerman, Duane Hanson, John De Andrea, Chuck Close, Richard
Estes
Related Movements: Photorealism, Pop Art, Realism

Hyperrealism is a genre of painting and sculpture resembling a high-resolution
photograph. Hyperrealism is considered an advancement of Photorealism by the
methods used to create the resulting paintings or sculptures. The term is
primarily applied to an independent art movement and art style in the United
States and Europe that has developed since the early 1970s. Carole Feuerman is
the forerunner in the hyperrealism movement along with Duane Hanson and John De
Andrea.

The art dealer Isy Brachot coined the French word hyperréalisme, meaning
hyperrealism, as the title of a major exhibition and catalogue at his gallery in
Brussels in 1973. The exhibition was dominated by such American photorealists as
Ralph Goings, Chuck Close, Don Eddy, Robert Bechtle and Richard McLean; but it
included such influential European artists as Domenico Gnoli, Gerhard Richter,
Konrad Klapheck, and Roland Delcol. Since then, hyperrealism has been used by
European artists and dealers to apply to painters influenced by the
photorealists. Among contemporary European hyperrealist painters we find
Gottfried Helnwein, Willem van Veldhuizen and Tjalf Sparnaay, Roger
Wittevrongel, as well as the French Pierre Barraya, Jacques Bodin, Ronald Bowen,
François Bricq, Gérard Schlosser, Jacques Monory, Bernard Rancillac, Gilles
Aillaud and Gérard Fromanger.

Early 21st century hyperrealism was founded on the aesthetic principles of
photorealism. American painter Denis Peterson, whose pioneering works are
universally viewed as an offshoot of photorealism, first used hyperrealism to
apply to the new movement and its splinter group of artists. Graham Thompson
wrote "One demonstration of the way photography became assimilated into the art
world is the success of photorealist painting in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
It is also called super-realism or hyper-realism and painters like Richard
Estes, Denis Peterson, Audrey Flack, and Chuck Close often worked from
photographic stills to create paintings that appeared to be photographs."

However, hyperrealism is contrasted with the literal approach found in
traditional photorealist paintings of the late 20th century. Hyperrealist
painters and sculptors use photographic images as a reference source from which
to create a more definitive and detailed rendering, one that often, unlike
photorealism, is narrative and emotive in its depictions. Strict Photorealist
painters tended to imitate photographic images, omitting or abstracting certain
finite detail to maintain a consistent over-all pictorial design. They often
omitted human emotion, political value, and narrative elements. Since it evolved
from Pop Art, the photorealistic style of painting was uniquely tight, precise,
and sharply mechanical with an emphasis on mundane, everyday imagery…
