What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.

Stuckism is an art movement that promotes figurative painting over conceptual art. It was founded in 1999 by Charles Thomson and Billy Childish with an initial group of 13 artists in Britain. The movement has since expanded to 52 countries with 233 groups worldwide. Several manifestos, issued by Thomson and Childish, advocate for the spirit of modernism and the creation of spiritual art, regardless of medium, subject matter, or style. Stuckism emphasizes the importance of genuine expression and rejects the dominance of conceptual art in the contemporary art scene.
