Realism was an art movement that aimed to depict realistic representations of common people and scenes in a plain, straightforward manner, in contrast to the exaggerated emotions of Romanticism. It began in France in the 1850s and focused on everyday subjects painted in a detailed, factual style. Jean-Francois Millet was a famous realist painter known for his scenes of peasants working in the fields, rendered with careful attention to textures, shading, and facial expressions to achieve realistic effects.

I describe naturalism in literature, art and the whole movement of naturalism. I also compare naturalism to other movements, and I hope you find my information helpful to you! I will also be talking about Emile Zola, and Benjamin Franklin Norris Jr: they are two of the leading naturalist authors.
Romantics stressed the individual creativity and the freedom to innovate. Romanticism focussed on the use of creative imagination and the importance of myth and symbolism
REALISM and Naturalism Art movement Presentation by Anuj Kumar MauryaAr. Anuj Kumar Maurya
Realism and Naturalism are two distinct art movements that emerged in the 19th century and share some similarities but also have significant differences in their approaches to depicting the world.
Realism:
Realism, as an art movement, emerged in the mid-19th century as a response to the romanticism and idealized portrayals of the world that characterized much of the art of the time. Realist artists sought to depict the world as it is, without embellishment or idealization. They aimed to portray everyday life, ordinary people, and the social realities of the time.
Realist artists focused on accurate representation and attention to detail. They aimed to capture the physical appearance of subjects and often depicted scenes from contemporary life, including urban and rural settings, industrialization, and the working class. The subject matter of realist art encompassed a wide range of themes, including social issues, politics, and the conditions of the working class.
Prominent realist artists include Gustave Courbet, Jean-François Millet, and Honoré Daumier. Their works often carried a social and political commentary, reflecting the social inequalities and struggles of the time.
Naturalism:
Naturalism, also known as literary naturalism, is an offshoot of realism that emerged in the late 19th century. While it shares some characteristics with realism, naturalism places a greater emphasis on the scientific and deterministic view of the world. Naturalist artists sought to depict human beings as products of their environment and subject to natural forces and circumstances.
Naturalism often focused on the darker aspects of human existence, such as poverty, violence, and the harsh realities of life. It explored themes of survival, fate, and the influence of heredity and social conditions on individuals. Naturalist artists aimed to provide a scientific and objective representation of reality, often incorporating detailed observations and research into their work.
Prominent naturalist artists include Édouard Manet, Émile Zola, and Gustave Flaubert. Their works delved into the grittier aspects of society and human existence, challenging traditional moral and social conventions.
In summary, while both Realism and Naturalism emerged as reactions against romanticism and idealism, Realism focused on portraying everyday life and social realities with accuracy and detail, while Naturalism took a more scientific and deterministic approach, examining the darker aspects of human existence and emphasizing the influence of environment and heredity.

painting and literature
Realism in Painting
In part due to the impact of photography, the Realist painters wanted to branch
away from fantastic or Romanticized representation of life and nature and
instead strove to depict real-life events with real-life detail.
Realists tried to move away from their own feelings and ideas and instead
represent life as it actually was – not filtered through just one person’s
understanding or emotion. They wanted to represent life without any
embellishments and this meant even dealing with its ugly, dirty, or low sides.
Ultimately, they aimed for objective rather than subjective representation.
They were also concerned with contemporary events – with the here and now
rather than some romanticized past or utopian future.
The subject matter consists almost exclusively of the lower classes and rural poor.
Realists tried to convey the idea that ordinary people in modern times, not
archaic gods or kings and queens, were the proper subject for modern art.
The Realists also generally refused to use traditional iconography in their
paintings, such as Biblical allusions, mythological subjects, or complex symbols.
Gustave Courbet (1819-1877)
Courbet was one of the leading figures in this shift away from Romantic,
sublime, and idealized art toward a more true-to-life style in painting. He,
like most Realists, was also a social activist on the side of the working classes.
What follows are a few quotes from Courbet that reveal his new approach to
painting and which reinforce the characteristics on the previous slide:
“To be able to translate the customs, ideas, and appearances of my time as I
see them – in a word, to create a living art this has been my aim…”
“The art of painting can consist only in the representation of objects visible
and tangible to the painter…[who must apply] his personal faculties to the
ideas and the things of the period in which he lives…”
“I hold also that painting is an essentially concrete art, and can consist only
of the representation of things both real and existing…An abstract object,
invisible or nonexistent, does not belong to the domain of painting”
“A painter should paint only what he can see.” When asked why he never
painted angels, Courbet replied, “Show me an angel, and I’ll paint one.”
Courbet
Self-Portrait
1848
Here is Courbet’s self-portrait. You can tell he
has not tried to create an idealized image of
himself or an overly sentimental image either. It
is simply what he sees in the mirror – for better
or for worse!

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

2. What is Realism? Made to be as realistic as possible. Against the exaggerated emotions of the Romantic Movement. Was objective and down to earth Realism movement began in France in the late 1850’s
3. Realism Started in the 1850’s The opposite of abstract The goal was not to convey beauty but the commonplace in all its plainness Branches of this type of art include, Social Realism, Magic Realism and Hyper-Realism
5. “The Gleaners“ by Jean Francois Millet It seems that they are picking wheat Possibly slaves Something is going on in the background The textures are well done as well as shading
6. “Potato Planters” by Jean Francois Millet Usual setting for one of Millets paintings Very simple plot, its just 2 farmers planting potatoes Looks like oil paint Great textures as well as shading
7. “Man With a Hoe”by Jean Francois Millet Set in a field, as usual with something like a camp spot behind him. Is different because you actually see the mans face. He looks tired, possibly from hoeing. Another painting well done with shading and texture.
8. Jean Francois Millet Seems to have been influenced by the working man, or women. Sets her painting as in the mitts of an action, a simple one, however it is like a photograph taken as each person was in the middle of an action. Seems to have used much oil paint. Used texture as well as shading and tones to create a more realistic look.
