Critical Realism in Contemporary Painting

The term 'Critical Realism' has existed since the early 20th century. Founded in philosophy and came to art through the Hungarian Marxist political thinker and artistic critic, Georg Lukacs, Lukacs states “Artists should approach their subjects not as isolated exceptions, but as typical of the circumstances of their time”. Research has been undertaken of Critical Realism in contemporary Art. Here we find the possibility to “(re)invent a socio-critical art in a globalised visual culture”.
