My favorite artist
 

Stolen my idea in the next topic, which discusses the most significant artists of the 20 th century. But artists are not always recognized and "significant". Let's discuss our favorite artists, in my opinion, this is no less interesting. Perhaps someone through this open for themselves new names or new aspects of talent artist friends.

Here's my personal list:

• Bosch
• Modigliani
• Vrubel
• Renoir
• De Tamara de Lempicka

and will explain why this artist or simply a statement of fact?

Asked to say that Mark Rothko, but the hand does not rise.:)
More seriously, then:

- Lanskoy (especially black)
- Kliun

I think it's quite difficult to explain ...: confused:
There are artists sold, there is not much, is recognized, etc. Favorite artists are determined subjectively. Simply it is this close to an artist by temperament, by nature of work, color ... I can not describe precisely the reason why I like it, for example, Bosch, just like it all. There are pictures, which cause some strong feelings, but there are those who do not cling, in spite of all their dignity and recognition ...

And in fact. An interesting statistics can gather. Who prefer people of different ages and different temperaments. It would be nice, all the forum members replied in this thread.

Personally, I, for example, more artists like 19 th century classical direction. I do not know why, but I somehow closer. And of the 20 th century, too, someone who worked in the same style. Although, in contrast, the same Lanskoy, in my opinion, a very interesting artist. And my wife really like Sitnikov. She considers it a blurry female shape is very romantic.

It would also be interesting to know who the artist what not like. Although it is perhaps even more complex issue. I would like this gathering of not able to answer it.

personal top list:
brothers Lorenzetti
van Eyck
Dürer (as scheduled)
Vermeer
Velazquez
Serov
Grigoriev

is not even something that people loved, but I'm just out of every century (14-20 century) chose one artist, whom I consider the "best" - by the incredible violence against yourself. But the 18 - no one (well, I do not like this gallant century), but 2 of 17))) C 20 was not determined. Well, let it be until Grigoriev.

Regarding those who do not like it, I can say that I, for example, is not terribly fond of Malyavina ... not even know why =)

I do not because of the name right? ;)

I Filonova not that I did not even love, and energy not stand.

An interesting explanation, I liked it, thank you. :) But not like "and" not stand "- yet two different things. Sometimes, for example, "I love you, but not stand." ;) As is the case in your case?
