hyperrealism

Bell became part of the photorealism movement in the U.S. during the late ’60s, which was an outgrowth of pop art and modern American advertising culture. Troupe offers toys on a huge canvas, with a majestic appearance: their high gleam can be interpreted as nostalgic, gaudy, or as relics of a hyper-consumerist culture
