Spring Showcase

International Guild of Realism has been at the forefront of contemporary realism since its inception in 2002. One of the ways it continues to promote its artists is through yearly exhibitions at galleries around the country, but a new opportunity for the members is to show their work online in its Spring Salon Online Exhibition.

Not only will the exhibition be available to view in its entirety on the IGOR website, but our brand-new website will be hosting the entire show as well. Since the magazine started 15 years ago, American Art Collector has been a corporate sponsor of the Guild’s shows. With our new homepage, we are allowing you, the collector, the opportunity to see the more than 200 works that were juried in the show and communicate directly with IGOR about purchasing the work by clicking “Inquire About this Art” in the Gallery Space Online. The Spring Salon Online Exhibition will be available to view March 20 through May 20.

“As an original charter member of the International Guild of Realism, I am thrilled to see the amazing growth within IGOR over the past 16 years. IGOR is proud to present the 2020 Spring Salon Online Exhibition,” says Donald Clapper, a founding charter member of the group. He adds, “IGOR is definitely a major player in the resurgence of academic realism in fine art. Our juried membership represents some of the very best realists in the world and this year’s Spring Salon is one of our best shows to date in terms of quality, creativity and number of paintings. Our artist members hail not only from North America but from more than 35 countries around the world.”

While skin is a completely different substrate and ink a far cry from oil paint, the skills must be transferrable to some degree because there is a wait-time of nine months to get an appointment with him.
