About Guntur’s Current Artwork
Talking about Guntur’s works inescapably lead us to the discourse of the realist painting, which currently related to photography. We cannot deny that most artists who deal with the technique and language of realist currently use photography as helping tools – in addition to other helping tools, such as projector. Pluralism, which comes to take role as the foundation for contemporary art, has given realist tendency a chance to resurface. The contemporary art, which shows the return of art as representational area, cannot deny the realist tendency the glory it deserves. One of the instances where the realist tendency is shown is on photographic works. Photography is a medium that often gets to be called transparent, directly referring to the subject matter, narration and issues that it represents.
