Hyperrealism denotes an artistic movement in modern art, which came into being in the late 1960s and reached its zenith in the 1970s, characterized by the reproduction of objects, people and scenes with an almost photographic level of precision. As one of the most advanced and refined techniques of visual art, hyperrealism employs techniques such as superhigh-resolution photographs, precise brushwork, and detailed light and shadow. Richard Estes, the artist, is hyperrealism’s most hyperrealistic urban landscape artist while Chuck Close is a renowned repository of intricate detailed portraitures. This movement arouses in its audience the grit to ponder about the edge of real and simulated imagery widening the grasp of one’s senses and perception. The attraction of hyperrealism is that it so mixes art and reality that it combats with the enhanced focus on the visual aspects of the world.
