PHOTOREALISM PAINTING HAS ITS ROOTS IN NEW REALISM, A MOVEMENT BEGUN BY PHOTOREALIST PAINTERS (A.K.A. PHOTOREALISTS) RALPH GOINGS, AUDREY FLACK, CHUCK CLOSE

"Don’t Shed No Tears is at once visceral and ethereal.

Portraying a language of white letters, they are unspoken visual messages - but nonetheless not unheard. For most of it, there are no words."
