- Title
La importancia de la precisión en el realismo pictórico europeo desde 1900: Algunos casos aislados: de Ivon Hitchens a Antonio López.
- Authors
SERRANO LEON, DAVID
- Abstract
The history of pictorial realism reveals that most artists represented an approximate space, with the exception of a few isolated examples who made use of measuring and optical devices to achieve the most objective precision. It was, however, during the 20th century that painters proved to be most interested in representing reality with all its perceived distortions. Aside from Antonio López, most of the contemporary artists analysed in this study were and are British - Ivon Hitchens, Lawrence Gowing, David Hockney and Euan Uglow - reflecting that country's lengthy theoretical and practical interest in issues relating to the representation of form.
