Realism in Asian Art explored the impact of realist approaches to painting in different parts of Asia. The term ‘realism’ refers to the 19th-century Western art movement that focused on observation of everyday life. Featuring different expressions of realism produced across Asia, this exhibition was the first to undertake a study of this important development in Asian modern art.
