You can post living artists obviously, just post good ones please.
Andrew Wyeth, one of the best 20th century painters.
Ernest Meissonier. One of the greatest genre painters ever.
>European art
>Russian art
Why is Russian art a separate category?
>>34845560
Fag painting.
>>34845982
Why?
>>34845856
Because Russians aren't white.
>>34846059
Because it depicts a homosexual.
should i post some 17th century dutch golden age paintings?
>>34845321
Based Michelangelo.The greatest Artist of all time. Only a man blessed by God Himself could be capable of such majestic works.
>>34846500
nice, who painted that?
Anyone got the painting of Ivan III holding his dying son? That one always resonates with me. Something about the eyes, I think,
>>34846748
you know what, nevermind. I don't even know where to begin
>>34846748
alsjeblieft ja
And now for something a little more contemporary. Behold Picasshole!

The sad thing about Picasso is, if you look at the sketches he did in his youth, you can see he could have become a talented traditional artist.
Instead he rode the wave of modernism.
>>34847003
Where did it go wrong?

Fucking hell, it's so grotesque. I can only feel repulsion when I see it. Who can enjoy the broken shapes and horrible colouring that reminds me of feverish nightmares? Why do people like disharmony and ugliness?
>>34847430
Modern Art is a giant scam. It allows try hard wanna be intellectuals to amsturbate over their own cleverness while pointing that finger at any Pleb who has the gall to point out that the Emperor has no clothes.
Another sign of the collapse of Western Culture
>>34847604
Indeed. It is the natural way things go I suppose. Painting is an art that has been perfected for a long time now. The only possible change is downwards now.
Are we fine with Beksi?ski?
>>34847564
Fuckin hell! The shading in that paining! Fantastic stuff. The Italian renaissance was truly one of the highest points in Western culture
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Paintings The entire series of "Black Paintings" by Francisco Goya is quite amazing. He painted these on the walls of his home for himself, a rather horrifying thought.
>>34847859
A little too dark for this thread imo.
>>34847859
Technically they are fine, but the theme is rather grotesque in way not too dissimilar from Picasso and other modern painters. Too grim and dark for my taste.
>>34847859

>>34847895
It's already (early) Baroque. But in essence you are right.
More Caravaggio
Do you guys have any artwork displayed in your houses?
>>34848097
A question for those with more knowledge of painting: what country could be seen as "best" when it comes to painting? Who perfected the art of oil painting as we discuss here?
Personally I would say that Italians have perfected sculpture and they are definitely a strong contender for painting as well, in my opinion.
>>34847982
Well, I personally like his work, because it's both surrealist and modern, and doesn't look like some scribbles like most modern art. Kind of shows what modern art could be if artists actually put some effort into their work instead of just circlejerking.
>>34847604
Modern art is bullshit, as an art student i hate it, thats why im quitting art school, its all a bunch of hippy/new age fags who think alliens invented humans and satan is good. Well its only one guy like that in my class, but everyone else thinks he's smart and they actually believe him, its just a bunch of faggots into tumblr art.

A few simple landscape-paintings, nothing special or famous. Basically what I got from the family home when I moved out.
>>34848179
Italy boast Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, Donatello, Raphael - to name a few. All legendary painters. I'd say the Italians were the best in the world at the arts thanks largely to the influence of the Catholic Church.

Exactly what i meant, i tell everyone i dont want to be called an artist or associate with them. Realism and what the guy in with the dragon did is considered "unimaginative" "uncreative" e.t.c. the teachers view people who like realism as idiots who cant think "openly" sad...
>>34848459
You want music to honour tItaly with? How about this:

Zaporozhian Cossacks to the Turkish Sultan!
O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil's kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are you, that can't slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil excretes, and your army eats. You will not, you son of a bitch, make subjects of Christian sons; we've no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck your mother.
You Babylonian scullion, Macedonian wheelwright, brewer of Jerusalem, goat-fucker of Alexandria, swineherd of Greater and Lesser Egypt, pig of Armenia, Podolian thief, catamite of Tartary, hangman of Kamyanets, and fool of all the world and underworld, an idiot before God, grandson of the Serpent, and the crick in our dick. Pig's snout, mare's arse, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw your own mother!
So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You won't even be herding pigs for the Christians. Now we'll conclude, for we don't know the date and don't own a calendar; the moon's in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day's the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our arse!

What about Ferri?
>>34848628
Russian classical music was pretty based in 19th century, but I'd still say Germans win overall.
>>34848758
Based Roberto Ferri

Haydn, Schubert, The list can go on..
>>34848555
Agreed. I'd give Literature to the English though. The Germans are god tier when it comes to music, though the Italians were no slouches in that department.
>>34848758
As I said modernism is an ideology, you can be a contemporary artist and work within traditional aesthetics.

Im a big biased towards the French I have to admit. Like you say though many countries had a wealth of incredible literature. Ancient Greece is particularly astonishing just given the quantity of it from so long ago, and it's continued relevance. Homer and the later playwrights, particularly Sophocles, are world's ahead of anything else from that time

Art school is typically to teach the various techniques, classically pen and ink or paint on canvass sort of thing no? What you do with that is up to you.
All art is political, maybe you should enroll in polisci?
Not sure of artist here.
