More Disruption: Representational Art in Flux

Profoundly shaped by the events, forces, and overflow of today's disjointed, social-media-heavy life, these artists' paintings are “disrupted” stylistically, thematically, or sometimes both. They allow us to appreciate how art relates to the "super-fast, simultaneous, almost dizzyingly paced scrolling" of our lives. • Foreword by artist Nicholas Wilton, founder of Art2Life • Features a special essay on artist Jenny Saville, who has inspired many contemporary representational artists to disrupt their art • More than half of the artists are from outside the US; includes women and BIPOC artists • Artists' comments presented in an engaging question-and-answer style • Artists include Casey Baugh, Jenny Saville, Joseph Lee, Ruprecht von Kaufmann, Justin Mortimer, and dozens more • Art writer and curator John Seed is the foremost authority on disrupted realism and is the author of Disrupted Realism: Paintings for a Distracted World 224 pp | 325 color images
