Hosting IGOR’s juried exhibition this year is another way to build on that tradition. IGOR currently has over 375 members from over 35 countries, representing some of the very best realist painters in the world. All members go through a rigorous jury committee, and then further juries in their sanctioned exhibitions. This year’s juried exhibition will have a beautiful blend of many styles within the umbrella of realism such as classical realism, trompe l’oeil, photo realism, magic realism and contemporary realism.
