    -is also termed as “structured realism” and a few writers


    sometimes refer to their theories simply as “realist” to emphasize
    the continuity between their own and older views.

    -is a cultural movement that brings elements of true life in the


    stories it describes, rather than a world mainly existing in
    imagination only. The movement was developed in Europe,
    primarily after the end of World War II.

    -Neorealism in painting was established by the ex-Camdem Town


    Group painters Charles Ginner and Harold Gilman at the
    beginning of World War I. They set out to explore the spirit of
    their age through the shapes and colors of daily life.

    Artist (Philippines)

    Cesar Legaspi – is remembered for


    the singular achievement of refining
    cubism in the Philippine context.
    Legaspi belonged to the so-called
    “Thirteen Moderns” and later, the “Neo-
    realist”. Among his works are Gadgets
    I, Gadgets II, Diggers, Idols of the
    Third Eye, Flora and Fauna, The
    Survivor and many more.
    Cesar Legaspi’s Works

    “Gadgets,” 1947, done in


    two versions, reflects the
    increasing importance of
    machines in the post-war
    industrialization period, as
    well as what he perceived
    was the insidious threat of
    human metamorphosing
    into machine.

    Through the 1970s and


    1980s, Legaspi paintings
    that deal with universal
    human experience, such as
    The Survivor. These large,
    heroic canvases, done in
    his dynamic style, convey
    the surging, straining
    movements of human

    beings in aspiration, struggle, and triumph.


    Artist(International):

    Ashot Melkonian - was an


    Armenian artist associated with
    Neorealistic artistic style. He
    mainly devoted himself to
    landscape and portraits painting
    as well as murals and he is one of
    the founders of Neorealism in
    Armenian art. Among his works
    are Boy with a book, Armen, and
    Murals.

    Ashot Melkonian’s Works

    The trees and the


    flowers in the painting
    are viewed as symbols of
    tender that unites the
    family,the "Family" came
    as a proof of Melkonian's
    artistic maturity. Its most
    characteristic features
    are the precise simplicity
    of drawing, the richness
    of substance and bold
    statement of values adopted by the new school of Armenian
    painting that emerged in the 1960s.
