MarsKid 03.23.17	@Sinternet that is pretty sexy, damn @thiswastheyear that Pope portrait one is freaky, I like it And Gary Busey is art I agree
butcherboy 03.23.17	Pierre soulages.. Genius French painter.. Uses only black, makes texture paintings.. Brilliant
MillionDead 03.23.17	Gerhard Richter is my dude. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/2b/29/49/2b2949783c00469e82668f96474cc41b.jpg
Satellite 03.23.17	louis wain dali georgia o'keefe (went to her museum in santa fe. neat shit.)
Spacesh1p 03.23.17	Courbet - A Burial at Ornans Probably my favorite painting, definitely my favorite I've seen in person. Googling it doesn't do it justice because it's a very large painting.
MarsKid 03.23.17	Yeah, looking at something online isn't the full experience. Raft of Medusa for example is 16 by 23 feet
zakalwe 03.23.17	Shouldn't you brats be digging conceptual modernist bollocks that says fuck all?
dbizzles 03.23.17	I'm mostly into graphic novel/comics artists, but check out some stuff by Glenn Fabry, Dave McKean or David Mack. John Higgins did some cool stuff in World Without End by Jamie Delano- most panels look like tech-death album artwork. EDIT: Speaking of tech-death, some of the users turned me on to Paolo Girardi in the Artificial Brain thread. That guy has some really cool stuff.
Papa Universe 03.23.17	Malevich - Black Square
Spacesh1p 03.23.17	Some contemporary art is cool, Zak. I like Rothko and Agnes Martin amongst a few others (again those really need to be seen in person), but generally I prefer 19th century or earlier.
DrMaximus 03.23.17	Mark Rothko
Riviere 03.23.17	"Shouldn't you brats be digging conceptual modernist bollocks that says fuck all?" No one with a functional brain digs that crap.
dbizzles 03.23.17	Pretty sure zak doesn't think anyone born after 1980 has a functional brain.
MarsKid 03.23.17	I like pre-1900s stuff the most in all honestly. Renaissance, Baroque, Romantics, Impressionists, that stuff
Azertherion 03.23.17	I'm a fan of impressionism. Here's an obvious and well-known masterpiece by our fellow painter with one ear : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Nuit_%C3%A9toil%C3%A9e#/media/File:Van_Gogh_-_Starry_Night_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg I enjoy most pictural arts, however I do lack knowledge on the subject, I need to read more and see more paintings !
MarsKid 03.23.17	van Gogh also took a lot of inspiration from Japanese Ukiyo-e artists if you ever want to check into that movement.
TheTripP 03.23.17	i love art, just don't know too much about it... but I do like this guy! https://www.google.com/search?q=shawn+coss&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwimnJfr0O3SAhVQ2GMKHQwDCaAQ_AUICCgB&biw=1455&bih=1009
TheTripP 03.23.17	Shawn Coss also created the Album cover for the new Seether (though I don't care about the band)
Azertherion 03.23.17	Yeah, everyone at the time was mad of Japanese Art. Some of his favourite paintings were indeed amazing.

cylinder 03.23.17	Mark Rothko [2] the early waves of abstract expressionism were incredible- Joan Mitchell, Franz Kline, Hans Hofmann etc. just pure intensity https://www.google.com/search?q=joan+mitchell+painting+1953&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjg4K6s3-3SAhVH7IMKHW1UDNAQ_AUIPCgB&biw=2560&bih=1300#imgrc=t1-eyci7zsku5M: there is usually a lot of amazing 'modern' stuff being made but it's hard to keep up with who's who, especially while following music and stuff too. i remember this one tho, seeing it at the Walker: https://www.google.com/search?q=joan+mitchell+painting+1953&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjg4K6s3-3SAhVH7IMKHW1UDNAQ_AUIPCgB&biw=2560&bih=1300#tbm=isch&q=walker+art+center+i+can%27t+work+like+this&*&imgrc=nQ_yEHXKRupdPM: (it's a bunch of nails in a wall spelling out the outline of the phrase "I can't work like this")
Grimlin 03.23.17	My absolute favorite artist is Zdzislaw Beksinski from Poland. He died from being stabbed by his neighbor for not loaning him money sometime back in 2005, otherwise he might still be alive. Been seeing more and more albums with his art on the their album covers, which is not necessarily a good thing. https://art.vniz.net/en/beksinski/
dbizzles 03.24.17	That shit is awesome, Grimlin.
MarsKid 03.24.17	That's an unfortunate story, at least his art lives on. Incredible stuff.
Spacesh1p 03.24.17	Beksinski is pretty cool yeah. Personally I find impressionism to be quite boring. Maybe it's my gf's influence (probably) but I tend to agree with her that it's aesthetically pleasing but isn't very interesting. The artists and how they arrived at that style certainly are but the art itself is on the more boring side.
Spacesh1p 03.24.17	I really like relief carvings on churches as well. Love a good judgment scene. Cathedral at Amiens: https://www.google.com/search?q=amien+cathedral+judgment+scene&safe=strict&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj83MC14e_SAhVk5IMKHZYZAC8QsAQIGw&biw=1491&bih=781#imgrc=NhqKqh7_cu3RoM:
