Descriere
The work of 43 realist artists, along with Q&A insights, connect us with contemporary painting that's “disrupted” stylistically, thematically, or both.
Foreword by artist Nicholas Wilton, founder of Art2Life.
Profoundly shaped by the events, forces, and overflow of today's disjointed, social-media-heavy life, the 43 diverse and global realist artists in this book feature paintings that are “disrupted” stylistically, thematically, or sometimes both.
Accompanying the over 300 images in this book are artists' insights, to appreciate how responding to life’s disruptions engages the artistic imagination. You'll be instantly absorbed by their comments presented in an engaging question-and-answer style. Artists include Casey Baugh, Jenny Saville, Joseph Lee, Ruprecht von Kaufmann, Justin Mortimer, and dozens more.
The book opens with a special essay on artist Jenny Saville, who has inspired many contemporary representational artists to disrupt their art. Art writer and curator John Seed, the foremost authority on disrupted realism, is the perfect author and subsequent guide to help us appreciate how art relates to the "super-fast, simultaneous, almost dizzyingly paced scrolling" of our lives.
PRAISE FOR MORE DISRUPTION...
"Elegant and visually splendid . . . a tour de force."
—Michael Shnayerson, author of Boom: Mad Money, Mega Dealers, and the Rise of Contemporary Art

Recenzii
"This book shows the dialogue around figurative art today is alive and vibrant. Asking essential questions. Honest and anxious. Eyes wide open. It is essential reading for anyone who has something to say and wants to do so visually."
"Elegant and visually splendid . . . a tour de force."
"John Seed once again does a phenomenal job bringing together contemporary artists who have a finger on the pulse of our fast-changing society . . . A dynamic collection of visually stunning work that explores our fluctuating world through impressive paint handling and innovative ways of envisioning the figure."
"Both celebrates and enacts the current zeitgeist of hybridity and its multiplicity of voices . . . As a personal fan of a why choose, both and approach to art's cyclical abstraction vs. figuration tussles, I find the book's contributions to contemporary art history quite satisfying."
"Once again, John Seed guides us through the complex, ever-changing landscape of today’s contemporary art scene. His deep understanding of art offers us a unique perspective on the evolution of representational art."
