Label TextThe three prints by Robert Bechtle, Don Eddy, and John Salt are from the portfolio Documenta, which consists of 10 prints by photorealists who exhibited at Documenta 5 in Kassel, Germany in 1972. Documenta, established in 1955, is an exhibition of modern and contemporary work that is limited to 100 days and happens every five years. Documenta 5 is considered an important milestone in the history of photorealism, a hyper-realistic approach to painting that began in the late 1960s.Exhibition HistoryTMA Persistent Realities, Contemporary Prints: Sept. 2, - Nov. 12, 1979 TMA Contempary Realistic Prints: Mar. 17, - June 3, 1984
