"The Real Snake" is a fascinating record of many of the
presentations that were made by academics and artists at The
Representational Art Conference in the fall of 2012, a
groundbreaking event founded by artists Michael Pearce and Michael
Lynn Adams, who recognized that there had been a neglect of
critical appreciation of representational art well out of
proportion to its quality and significance. Filling a gap in the
study of contemporary art, the conference was planned as a focused
but non-doctrinaire event, of serious academic standards.
Essential reading for people who love traditional studio art and
want to know more about what's happening in the representational
art world, "The Real Snake" is packed with fascinating
contributions, including critical insight from Jed Perl and the
entertaining commentary of popular Californian artist John Nava,
who gives the title to the volume with his reference to a scene in
the movie "Bladerunner." Other engaging chapters include eloquent
compositions by the popular blogger John Seed, the legendary Los
Angeles artist Ruth Weisberg and technical wizard Virgil Elliott.
