The Pavilion of Realism is an international exhibition inspired by a similarly titled exhibition organized by Realist painter Gustave Courbet. Courbet’s pavilion was a direct response to the rejection of one of his works from the 1855 Paris Universal Expo. The Pavilion of Realism updates the political tension between the Universal Expo and Courbet’s pavilion within the context of the 2010 Shanghai World Expo.
Like the official French salons of the 18th and 19th centuries where art was censored because it engaged politics, countries participating in the 2010 World Expo will promote nationhood via culture and art; yet what will be displayed will likely not explore the most pressing issues affecting the global community today. In contrast and in spirit with Courbet’s oppositional exhibition, The Pavilion of Realism will present challenging art that addresses social and political problems with “realism” absent in the exhibiting pavilions of the 2010 World Expo.

“现 实主展馆”是一次国际性的展览，展览的题目借用了现实主义画家库尔贝（Gustave Courbet）的同名展。库尔贝的作品被1855年巴黎世博会所拒绝，他的“展馆”就是对此事件的直接回应。而本次展览 则在2010年上海世界博览会的 语境中再次上演了当年库尔贝与巴黎世博会之间的政治对峙。
出于政治因素的考虑，18、19世纪的法国官方沙龙要对参展作品进行严格审查，而本次参加2010年世博会的国家则试图借助文化、艺 术来强调自己的民族 性，但本次展览并不打算探讨那些影响当今世界的棘手问题。相反，本次展览将秉承库尔贝的反抗精神，用艺术的方式呈现与“现实主义”有 关的社会、政治问题， 从而弥补了2010年上海世博会在这方面的缺席。
