PHILIP PEARLSTEIN Philip Pearlstein is one of the most important and innovative artists of the contemporary Realist school. He studied at Carnegie Institute of Technology and received his Masters in art history at New York University. During the time that Pearlstein began to work realistically the Modernists were absolute in their rejection of the Realist option. |

Although Pearlstein remained
as much a Modernist as any of his contemporaries, he found himself obliged
to reconsider the Realist option, and in so doing helped to reinvent
the terms by which Realism could once again be made into a vital art.
The Milwaukee Art Museum honored him with a retrospective exhibition
in 1983 and accompanied the exhibition with a monograph on his complete
paintings. |
