Visual Language Magazine covers an opening show in Ohio. Miller Gallery is proud to present its second biennial Contemporary Realism Invitational, an exhibition of paintings by some of the finest realist painters in the United States, Canada and beyond. A year in the planning, this extraordinary body of work, curated by gallery director Rosemary Seidner, features new paintings by 27 leading artists.
Leaving the heyday of 20th century modernism behind, a time when pushing art to its limits was more important than actual skill, there is an ongoing broad return by artists across the globe to discipline and tradition. The resulting art is not traditional, but refined to the highest level and inspired by the greatest artists of the past.
Included in the show are 15 renowned realists that Miller Gallery regularly represents and 12 remarkable artists whose work we greatly admire.
