Can we get another art thread going?
The stuff posted in those is usually pretty nice.
I'll post some of what I have saved.

It is incredible how Schiele manages to paint figures so distorted, yet retains anatomic accuracy within his works.
>>6174662
is this entire picture made with dry brush?
isn't that extremely wasteful?
Posting pictures I took in some local museums
inb4 abstract art isn't art hurr muh details
>>6174748
>>6174703
Schiele is fucking amazing
Anyone else kind of like surrealism, but not the aesthetic of Dali?
There's something about the playfulness of the imagery i like, but it's juxtaposed with this very realistic way of painting that i'm not a big fan of.
I think i kind of prefere Magritte's paintings to Dali's
>>6174767
>hurr muh details
what? that painting is extremely detailed.
>>6174767
Shit, why is it turned 90° counterclockwise?
Pic related was really creepy.
inb4 beksinki. not that he's bad but he shows up in damn near every one of these threads
>>6174780
was thinking the same thing, it tends to happen with pictures taken from the phone.
especially if you post it from your phone in my experience.
>>6174785
I've always loved that painting.
The look in his eyes is so intense, it amazes me everytime. The whole painting radiates some kind of disparity that keeps grasping my attention.
>>6174778
No, I'm actually talking about people who only like very detailed, realistic paintings.
>>6174797
A bit on the nose, but I enjoy the composition.
>>6174806
>A bit on the nose
how?
Love this guy.
Any painters in this thread?
Pic related was in a horrible place. It was big room with 8-10 gigantic paintings on the walls, 2-4 smaller ones, a 5 m long string hanging from the ceiling and several sculptures on the floor. It was a shock to enter the room. You get bombarded with so many things from so many directions, it gets ridiculously confusing. Later I came back there and saw a sculpture I haven't noticed at all the first time!
lets do this
>>6174837
wow, i love that
Not a painting though
>>6174842
great taste, love both the painting and the symphony
>>6174864
Richter is a master, this painting reminds me strangely of Brakhage

>>6174929
No the Terminator hadn't been made yet

What?
And the name of the painting is "Pollice Verso" so...no

like, how would you even begin to make something like this?
>>6174932
I love Pieter Bruegel, The Tower of Babel is also amazing.
>>6174963
Have way too much free time.
Pic is Peter Kogler's... uh... wallpaper in Zagreb MSU. There was also a cool sound/computer art installation by him: http://youtu.be/wiSac27C-Hg

GOAT colourists
>>6175341
What century are you guys living in?
>>6175348
how do I go about understanding Renaissance and Baroque art?
I want to start painting with oil paint, but have no idea what to get and where to start.
Anyone got any tips? I heard that oil painting can be pretty dangerous, and you shouldn't paint with it in a small area.
My room is very small, would this be a serious problem, and especially on a larger scale?
>>6175355
>>6175362
Depends. What do you want to start painting? If its people, then you should get well acquainted with drawing the human figure first. If anything else, just start throwing colors onto the canvas. Yeah small room, maybe not. The paint has a strong smell.
>>6175362
Painting is dead m8, forget about it entirely. It's all about conceptual shit now, which is all garbage.
>>6175390
Well then, nothing can't be reborn.
I had no Idea /lit/ had such terrible taste in art

is it really that bad? i heard people could faint and shit

Woah, I can hear this painting.
>>6175445
>>6175452
>>6175457
>>6175430
>abstract expressionism
Composition and color theory would be good to know. I mean I've painted in smaller rooms and I didn't faint but I could definitely smell it.
>>6175470
>>6175468
how small are we talking?
i'm thinking just making some small paintings right now. does it matter if it's closed off or not, cause i could do it in the booth in the garage.
>>6175475
Yeah just try it out in your room and see how it goes. If it starts bothering you then you can move to the garage. Or perhaps open a window.
>>6175473
>>6175481
>>6175479
i will, but will this smell and the fumes continue in the drying process, can't that take days?
was also thinking of watering down the color for my bigger projects (and maybe some smaller), can that be harmful in small spaces?
>>6175481
what is this bullshit
>>6175486
>>6175494
>>6175498

Supposedly, a cracked pot in a painting symbolizes a broken hymen.

>>6174827
Bougeareau is a great painter. I just wish he didn't paint the exact same face on every female figure he ever made.
>>6174703
He looks like a flattened out mummy.
>>6174772
Dali is hit and miss for me too. (Hit pictured) My favourite is Max Ernst though.
>>6174830

Days or even months. Honestly I'm not too sure. I wouldn't say I'm a painter by any means, I've just pained a few thing here and there.

Looking up that Urs Amann stuff from above I found this. Would go good with Saint Coco
>>6175945
More!
>>6175951
that's fucking hilarious.
anyone got that 'palm' picture or whatever, it's the one with broad, red/orange strokes creating a palm-like figure. often used as an example of how modern art is degenerate, but it really is beautiful.
>>6175945
That's just actual paint.
>>6175956
Malcolm Liepke
No love for engravings?
>>6175959
i know, but how did it happen?
by applying it directly to the canvas, does that happen just by painting normally?
>>6175945
that is an awful painting
>>6175978
Naw man, her beauty is astonishing,
>>6175978
Nobody cares about your empty opinions.

He is a bit of a one trick pony. Looking here, he doesn't even know how to do hands.
>>6175985
>The human body is boring as fuck
yet he made it look interesting
>>6175969
who is the artist? have any more?
>>6175985
But he makes them look weird. Like looking at bugs in a microscope.
>>6175993
Gustave Doré, of course.
>>6175993
Gustave Dore. His work is amazing
(If you're worried about not-being-polite, you needn't worry about it at all)
He stood beside the curtain.
‘There’s nothing going on out there, if that’s what you’re wondering’
Streetlight flooded through a large front-room window and a shadow casted itself onto the wall opposite; its meagre outline disfigured by some furniture.
From outside the window one could barely make out the face of the figure. A beard, black and unkempt, though not quite rugged. Two sides to a nose; feint. A furrowed brow, eyes narrow, a conical jaw.
Its posture, limited. It did not impose and yet did not restrain. To be frank, it simply was.
The streetlight died and with it, the shadow. He swept the curtain back to the middle
‘Want to turn on the light?’
Andrea del Sarto doesn't get enough love.

An almost subtle burst of fear swept through my nerves as I came across a weary, untouched landscape, the legends called the slash.
/r/ing books on appreciating art
I want to like art for a reason other than the superficial one that "it looks nice" but I don't really know how I can just go about examining the inner workings of high art.
>>6176065
>le world war 1 was bad
>>6175987

>>6176071

I hope you're not implying it wasn't
>>6176068
Maybe this?
>>6175626
>>6175643
cop some taste fuccbois
>>6176068
For Renaissance art, Ludovico Dolce's Aretino: Dialogue on Painting. Maybe some Alberti. If you want to get deeper into the meaning, Iconologia by Cesare Ripa perhaps.

David Niven
Are those bare legs or just flesh toned pants?
>>6176088
This one's fine, those listed by those anons were crap. Absolute crap.
>tfw your tomb will never be this beautiful
>>6176110
Cy Twombly and Rothko are great painters though. Shitty paintings of women in this thread are the real garbage
>>6176127
>Eve's womb was more beautiful.
And so I plough virgin soil with my seed for new harvest spring; pleasures divine doth grace my tongue and heaven with my spear.
how tacky is it to print out one or two of these onto a canvas and hang on a wall
Abstract painting is hit or miss, but abstract sculpture is usually pretty good because even if it looks like nonsense there's still some craft involved in getting it to not topple over and not just anyone can do it.
>>6176099
Either he's got a oblique crease in the skin of his right leg or it's pants.
>>6174721
who is this?

I do ugly things or banal figures too.
But to bring up Liepke once more. Milt Kobayashi does the same subject matter, but better imo. Pictured.

very, but understandable.
>>6176213
what is this hipster frame shape?? whats wrong with a simple rectangle not this trianglular border looks stupid and tryhard
Defining fine art as oil painting is some pussy ass bullshit
>>6176224
is your point that it's oil, or is that it's paintings?
>>6176218
>I feel that, except his paint movies were shit.
>>tfw the paint he used literally gave him cancer
what? i need some citation in this
>>6176224
That was eloquent, thank you
>>6176160
Just a gross painting
Saturn swallowed them whole. It was a logic problem of sorts. First gods were kept inside mother earth, but she conspired to let them out, second time Saturn had to swallow them, but they're immortal still and got out. The painting is just gratuitous gore.
>>6175817
neat
>>6176237
Half the shit in this thread is gratuitous beauty
It's even worse than gratuitous gore because it appeals to vanity
>>6176213
absolutely sublime. i don't understand how one man, any man, could have done this. it's unnatural
>>6176237
>Saturn
>The painting is just gratuitous gore.
you don't think that fits perfectly?

I just don't appreciate violence.
I kind of see it as a propaganda piece.
>>6176195
no ye little butterfly bitch
butt
>>6176232
watched a documentary called 'Brakhage' where it says the the paint he used likely gave him bladder cancer. also pretty good documentary; his kids talk about how hed get into these states once in a while where hed forget his name and speak random numbers over and over, they said he looked like an entirely different person, and his voice sounded different, he forgot how to do things like answer the phone
>>6176264
>I kind of see it as a propaganda piece
in what way?
i feel like works that depict beauty tend to be way more propagandistic.
