The most significant artists of the twentieth century
 

yesterday watched the transfer of about Marc Chagall, and I thought, this man has done so much for the arts on an international scale, his art was so distinctive and unusual)), can it be called the most significant artists of the twentieth century, or is it Picasso? or may be someone else?

The twentieth century gave the world a lot of interesting artists. Naturally, someone more obviously, someone mnee clearly influenced world art. Among the outstanding artists are the lucky ones who have been given a talent and long life. They had much to do, write - Chagall, Picasso, Dali. Each of them gave the world something new. There are artists who are called man-style. That is, they created their own, unique style that made their work unique. So were the Chagall and Dali.
Picasso is not only gave the world cubism. It is a unique example of how a lifelong artist passes different stages, mastering different styles, different style, but always remains unique.
And there were Soutine, Modigliani, Duchamp.
Warhol with Marilyn Monroe, Liz and soup - whatever was without Pop-art ...?
And, of course, Cezanne and Matisse, without which it is difficult to imagine the development of Russian art.

Artists, without which I personally would be bored (the last third of the 19 th century and the first third of the 20 th century):
Of Russian Artists - Mikhail Vrubel and Vasily Kandinsky
Of foreign - Cezanne, Van Gogh, Modigliani

Here a question arises ... but based on what parameters one treats for themselves the significance of artists? So I think that for most originality and innovation talent, I do not say significant, was Filonov ... possible for the of art of the twentieth century among the first that Picasso, Malevich, Chagall, and a little running back Gauguin ...

I think that the rational explanation here can not be. Like "formula of love". There are no criteria, only the inner feeling. You can not explain what an art different from the weak. Just cheovek able to see it. Or learn to see.

Vladimir, is a placebo, you can convince yourself anything ....

Well then, I persuaded myself that the most znachtelny Russian artist - this Vrubel:) Who will propose other candidates? Better with agrumentatsiey.

visiting the exhibition of the Golden Fleece (in the Tretyakov Gallery on the Crimean shaft) is hard to deny the power and significance Vrubel ... Look at the picture of the swan 1901 !!!!!! , and understand that here it is the vanguard in its full manifestation ... here you have the makings of non-objective painting ...

I would have nominated Filonova ... it was so distinctive and anyone not like he was so at odds with the trends of the time and so have seen a new meaning and essence of art that, for me it is without doubt one of the most major Russian artists ...

It's a pity to die of hunger, these innovators. Filonov, although in besieged Leningrad, but even without the war did not fatten much.

Well, not all)) Filonov was just such a person, who refused to sell their work ... that's why and in poverty, although there were many interested persons, especially foreigners to buy a large sum of money his paintings ...
the same innovators who agreed, very, very good live))) for example, Chagall, Warhol, Picasso, Dali ...
