Although the beginning of the 21st century exhibits a pluralism of styles an increasing number of artists are returning to realism. This particular show features several aspects of realism with three artists, Leo Neufeld, Mark Beck and Sarah Hartshorne, working traditionally in a realist style defined as “the accurate and apparently objective description of the ordinary, observable world (Wikipedia).” Quite different from these, Patricia Malcolm’s egg tempera paintings explore a more symbolist approach while Rodney Wood and Matthew Lutz work in a distinctly hyper-realist style. In addition, these six outstanding painters cover a wide variety of subject matters from the figure to still-lives, botany and landscapes.
