New Realism, Summer 2025 – June 14, 2026

New Realism explores the enduring relevance of representational art in an age often defined by abstraction and conceptualism. This compelling exhibition highlights a diverse group of American artists who have embraced realism not as nostalgia, but as a powerful and evolving language.

Featuring works from the Huntsville Museum of Art’s permanent collection, the exhibition reveals how these painters have revitalized traditional genres landscape, portraiture, still life—with a contemporary sensibility and astonishing technical skill.
