Hi Annabelle,
The author's purpose is to explore the "ironic" artistic reaction that was a 180 degree departure from Revolutionary Realism. Many schools of art flourished during this time, and the passage discusses two of them, including Scar Art. As you point out, Revolutionary Realism has public, monumental, and perfect features, while scar Art is private, mundane, and bleak.
Hope that helps,
Eveline
