What is Neopictorialism?

Answer 1

Just like Neo-soul is the contemporary revival of the soul music from the sixties, Neopictorialism is the aesthetics of the classic pictorialistic movement of the early 20th century applied to our modern world.

Famous representants of this international photographic art movement are Paolo Roversi, Bruno Bisang, Susan Burnstine, Gregor Toerz and AtheARTIST.

Neopictorialistic photographies look like paintings. Many are black and white or sepia, some are printed on exotic materials like gold leaves (AtheARTIST), but most often old chemical techniques are applied.

Old and new Pictorialism, both are famous for their dreamy and poetic characteristics.
