Join MOCA Senior Curator Anna Katz for a walkthrough of Ordinary People: Photorealism and the Work of Art since 1968
Reexamining the postwar art movement of photorealism and tracing its lineages in art of the present day, Ordinary People: Photorealism and the Work of Art since 1968 includes more than forty artists (largely though not exclusively North American), spans the 1960s to the present, and features paintings, drawings, and sculptures. This historical, scholarly, group exhibition recovers the social art history of photorealism and complicates its meaning as a realism.
