Magic Realism
マジック・リアリズム / 1925–1970s / Style / Figurative Painting
묘사는 철저히 사실적이면서도 빛과 배치, 정적으로 인해 현실이 한 단계 어긋나 보이는 회화. 초현실주의 같은 변형에 기대지 않고 흔한 사물을 기이할 만큼 명료하게 놓아 불안과 정적을 동시에 불러낸다. 명칭은 1925년 독일 미술비평에서 유래한다.
단단하고 균질한 빛 / 기이할 만큼 명료한 묘사 / 정지한 인물과 사물 / 설명되지 않는 배치

- 적합한 용도
- Brand photography and film stills that must feel calm and slightly wrong: fragrance, luxury goods, speculative fiction · Editorial illustration for essays whose subject is ordinary life seen from an angle that will not resolve
- 타이포그래피
- A quiet transitional serif, generously letterspaced, kept well clear of the image so it never explains it.
- 구성
- A single frontal scene with one object placed where the eye does not expect it, surrounded by a wide and undisturbed margin.
- 재료
- Matte, non-reflective stock and an even shadowless colour field: no grain, no gloss, nothing that suggests the picture was handled.
- 주의
- Reaching for melting clocks and impossible bodies: the moment the description breaks, the work is Surrealist, and the particular chill of the ordinary held too clearly is gone.
