Nadia Russ, 2006, NYC.

NeoPopRealism - first created and coined by Nadia Russ in January, 2003 - is a new style of visual arts. It's meant to reflect the attitude of the 21st Century, combining the brightness and simplicity of Pop art with psychological realism. The new movement was widely accepted by the world art community^{[citation needed]}, listing Bill Murphy - among others - as early adopters. The lounge-restaurant, located in the center and uptown areas of New York City's Manhattan since June, 2006, serves such art-themed tropical drinks - created in conjunction with Nadia Russ - as "NeoPopRealist Fabulous" and "NeoPopRealist Key".

NY Arts magazine had this to say about Nadia Russ's NeoPopRealism: "Her compositions are harmonious but at the same time challenging, sometimes with “pop your eyes out” color combinations, sometimes with the subject matter. She came up with a term Neopoprealism to describe her work. Her brightly colored canvases with flat linear rendering are reminiscent of the psychedelic posters of Peter Max. But in some works like “His Inner” or “Magicians” she uses crisscrossing lines that connect figures with mystical signs surrounding them in patterned backgrounds. Nadia's implement of black outlines in her paintings give her works a very defined, flat, graphic nature. In the work “New York Faces” the composition is drawn with black acrylic lines on the white background with selective use of blocked colors. Nadia is a master of balancing the hi energy colors in her compositions with poetic drawing style." ^{[citation needed]}

In 2004, Nadia Russ created the NeoPopRealist philosophy and its 10 commandments. This philosophy aims to make the world a better place, without wars, terrorism and religious strife.
