There are more but I'm a fuckin pleb and when I stumblr upon a great painting I never remember the author. Is there some sort of a complete gallery website that lets you browse stuff and add it to a favorites list of sort? There was one painting with a woman on a balcony that I really loved, as well as a Friedrich I've seen in a museum, but I don't know how to look 'em up
>>2779083
Oops, Freudian slip there

And there are lots of other brilliant paintings for example by markovsky.
I just love the expression.

Fuck I'm sorry.
You were accurate. It's Repin Sorolla Beksinski Caravaggio
I love Kolesnikov and Waterhouse too

>>2779985
Sargent man...
This is my favorite of his
Carl Larsson
No idea why Toulouse-Lautrec doesn't get more mentions, he was one of the last great painters before post-impressionism went to shit
>>2779997
He paints some of the ugliest women that were ever painted up to that point. I guess you could say he was really ahead of his time.
>>2779840

>>2780826
interesting, from just the thumbnail i thought it was a landscape

I never paid much attention to it looking through his work online, but then I saw it in person and it blew me away.

>>2783151
Mannerism pls leave.
>>2783468
who did this one? When I search I get a billion Vietnamese sites with words I don't know if any is a name..
Such an interesting range of emotions from different people, like the scared children, protective and consoling father, captivated youth and reassuring lovers.
Paired with expertly done lighting and shading and I consider this a masterpiece.
Seroiusly, take a minute to just examine every single figure in the picture. It's beautiful.
>>2783488
Its called Idun and the apples. Not sure the artist.
>>2783495
Yep, thats a loli nipple alright.
>>2783536
I found it!, thanks for the name of the painting anon! Even with that it was difficult to find the artist. It's James Doyle Penrose
>>2779997
He was a 4"8' with hypertrophied genitals, also his family had a history of inbreeding. Is this what it takes to git gud?

This is modern art aka degenerate art. Hitler would burn this shit and rightfully so. Its nothing. Doesn't inspire the soul. Faggots like you have ruined the art world.

>>2784490
You can love both anon. You can love both.
>>2784490
yeesh man
>>2784490
Art is everything, not only the academic stuff. art is perspective, mathematic but also émotion, light, color, metaphysic, exploration, texture. You're the only degenerate here. Theres good and bad in everything from Jacques-Louis David to Kasimir Malevitch, you edgy cunt.
What y'all think of Pieter Brueghel?
>>2784680
My favourite artist before the 20th century. A genius unlike another.
>>2784680
I love how it has a naive vibe to it, yet manages to seem very realistic.
>>2784693
The vibe is intentional. Bruegel was dissatisfied with other Dutch painters' decision to imitate the realism and other innovations that came from Renaissance Italy. He instead chose to stick to Dutch tradition, but he was also a very unique artist and an innovator.
>>2779255
>>2784700
but he still got that small elements touch as we can see in many dutch painting, especially Jérôme Bosch ones
>>2784700
>>2784708
>>2784712
Hieronymus Bosch had a big influence on Bosch. Also, I didn't mean that he was the only Dutch painter who rejected too much foreign influence, he was just one of the most important ones. In the same period Dürer traveled to Italy and was very inspired by what he saw. Bruegel went on a similar journey a couple of years later but was not too impressed by the Italian art. However, the Alps really struck him and that's the reason for those beautiful Alp-like mountains in his paintings (the Netherlands, his homeland, are flat).
>>2784758
Bosch had an influence on Bruegel*

if everything is art why bother coming to /ic/
you can take a shit in a toilet and voila! you've made art
>>2784972
>currin
its all about style and method. I highly doubt you can reflect on a shit nor you can explore it. Plus theres nothing artistic in something out of your control, you take shit because you gotta take shit and not because you want to create. Voilà.
>>2784982
>>2784490
>it's only good if it's like a photograph

I guess I'm just not smug enough to understand how refined your taste in absolute shit is. Modern art is for Jews and feminists. If you act like its amazing its already far too late for you.
As shit as medieval art was its interesting to look at. Also interesting to think how destroying a peoples culture and replacing it stunts artistic expression. Pre christian art was far superior and only in the enlightenment did art become great again because of the Pagan literature recovered in the crusades. And so the Christian God died never to be reborn again.
I wonder what new type of religion we will eventually create or adopt? Ironically enough it seems Egyptian and Hinduism (the oldest scriptures) are making a comeback, being the most logical and profound.

>>2785790
Do you even realise how stupid and ironic you are? You're doing the same thing critics did to impressionist in the late 1800s, yet nowaday you guys wont stop jerking to those painting. As I said earlier in this thread, theres good and bad in everything, from Jacques-Louis David to Kasimir Malevich.
you got to love Caspar David Friedrich.
>>2785790
of course theres is bad painting in modern art, but the same goes for every aesthetic movement. It would be absurd to condemn an entire movment just because of some pseudo-pretentious-artist.
>>2779039
>>2785977
where would you even hang this? in your bdsm torture dungeon? I don't get the point.
>>2785951
I don't really like impressionism myself, but an argument can easily be made that it's a definable style that has contributed to art as a whole. That argument can't be made for Modern Art, unless you start excluding the vast majority of art using that label.
>>2785986
This looks like a middle school art class project.
>>2786003
no it doesn't
>>2783495
those expressions in the light are captivating
>>2786006
Yes it does. It's full of major errors. Shadows in some areas and none in others, random color choices, the light source comes from the right in most of the painting but from the left in others, a near complete lack of perspective, and a jarringly ugly mishmash of brush stroke technique and direction. It's garbage.
>>2786021
no it doesn't. it's stylized. the color choices aren't random, the lighting is intentional, the perspective being wonky is intentional, the jarringness is intentional. you're opinion is garbage. post your work.
>>2786032
I'm aware that it's intentional, it's still garbage.
>>2785084
wrong, I intend to take the most beautiful shit, and you cannot deny that my next shit will be beautiful art, you utter faggot

>implying I dont like any other aesthetic movment
>implying I didnt include beauty in my statement.
Don't get butthurt dude, art is art, thats it.
I can appreciate a Pre-Raphaelite painting as much as a neo-expressionist one. and beauty, beauty is subjective. Don't waste your brain cells over things you don't find beautiful.
this ain't an existential debate, its an open discussion.

So basically this scientist demonstrates how a bird suffocates when there's no oxygen in the air.
The couple to the far left are normalfags of the worst kind. With no interest or respect neither for science nor life they're just interested in boning each other.
With that excited look on his face the kid below them is clearly a sadist. He probably tortures whatever animal he gets his hands on.
The guy next to him is only concerned about the process himself. He's a dry, boring type for sure.
The scientist himself is only interested in impressing the onlookers with his performance. He's doing so-so at that lol
At this point the father's lost all interest in the bird and experiment and is busy comforting his sheltered upper-class daughters who, much like most modern westerners, are ignorant of death.
For the kid in the background it's just business as usual. He is probably the scientist's helper.
The old guy to the far right is the one I find the most relatable. With his eyes fixed on the beaker with what I assume is a human brain in it, he is contemplating how the whole thing relates to mortality in general and other existential shit.

Was with you until you posted Hitler, who was mediocre at best.

Wow I really like this rendition of Salome(?) I'm assuming.

>>2785794
Why "ironically" ? As you say, they are the most logical and profound. And, at least for "Hinduism" (even if in reality this name designate a lot of faiths, path etc), there is some really interesting art inspiration in it.
>>2787972
Good Lord
>>2784680
I have the 2 main angels in the center tattooed on my body. Absolutely love this guys work since I found him in school. Traveled specifically to Brussels just to look at the painting... also his Tower of Babel is outstanding.
When I was like 13, me and my family were traveling around Europe on vacation.
We went to the Czech Republic for a few days and I was in the hotel for a while alone while they went to buy supplies from the shops or something.
I remember seeing a a pamphlet or something that had this artwork on it and I fapped to it in the shower since it was the only thing around that could stimulate my imagination and I was horny as fuck.
Ever since I've had a special attraction to this piece.
>>2788945
I prefer Hieronymus Bosch, but Bruegel is a fookin MASTER.
certainly not my favorite but one of the most disturbing ones i've ever seen
I want to lick that painting

I think that's the point he was making. Hitler wasn't all that great. He was good. And yet he was rejected from Art school while some faggot who took pictures of hairy assholes gets 30 million dollars.

Art is truth. Plain and simple. The first problem with most modern art is that it contains no truth, no meaning no nothing. The second problem with modern art is the very little truth that is contained within the painting/drawing is almost always the subject of some idoitic joke, or so plainly overdone that it ruins whatever worth the piece had, or most commonly covered with a huge swath of paint. There most definitely is a wrong way and a right way, we can discuss all day about which is which, but if you simply claim EVERYTHING IS ART you are simply wrong. Pic is one of my favorite expressionist paintings.
>>2781904
Bwhahahahahahahaahahhha.
God, I'm a beginner artist, but I can draw ten thousand times better than that. Mate, I've literally been drawing my entire life on and off, but never seriously, and I came up with this.
>>2803274
I'm aware that there is a shit ton wrong with this, but I feel way better now.
>>2803274
>drawing your entire life
>that picture
>beginner
Mate, I don't think you're a beginner.
>>2803282
No, what I mean to say is I barely draw. I've drawn my entire life, yes, but I've never taken it seriously. I've never fully started a sketchbook (until recently) for anatomy and studies and so forth. I myself don't think that sketch is great in the grand scheme of things, but I'm happy that I did it precisely because I' really haven't drawn too many things. Here's another of mine. I really am just starting to get into art study proper. Pic related.
>>2803293
I should say I learnt a lot from watching my brother who IS a good artist. But I've just never fully concentrated on art.
>>2803293
I don't think you have to take it seriously to go beyond beginner in skill level. To me beginner is when you don't fully understand how to do the basic ingredients, lines, space, shape, etc. You obviously have a decent grasp on it. I've been drawing seriously for 7 years without studying and I can't do the shit your just posted.
>>2803303
I suppose so. Here's another thing I've started doing. I'm not quite sure how I can do this though since, as I say, I haven't done many studies. I haven't ever had a sketchbook full of little drawings. I mostly have just large scale projects where I just throw myself into it. But now I'm going back and learning from the bottom.
>>2803316
Anyway.... Sorry for hijacking the thread. This is one of my favourite paintings.
