Beyond Reality. British Painting Today

Beyond Reality. British Painting Today

The selection of works reflects the growing importance of post-conceptual, mostly figurative painting, which now holds an extraordinary position on the British art scene. One of its key moments is the questioning of the possibilities, meaning and method of viewing reality. The exhibition has been conceived specifically for the exhibition spaces of Galerie Rudolfinum. In the work of selected artists in the first part of the exhibition are unmistakable references to photographic realism. The second part of the exhibition includes works by artists programmatically-following academic painting of the 19th century, and references to classical painting firmly tied to the Renaissance heritage.
