Photorealism -- The Concept
Photorealism, also known as Hyperrealism, Sharp Focus, or New Realism, is a form of Modern Western Painting. It is a step closer to reality than the Realist painting style. It originated in 1970s and remains popular in the present Western Art scene as well. Louis K. Meisel first proposed the term 'Photorealism' in 1968. As the name suggests, the base for this type of work is a photographic image.
