Secret Ninja Favorite Art Thread NSFW

Horse those ones by Piotr Dmochowski are amazing! Thanks for sharing!

I've always liked Jeannie Lynn Paske's stuff, she did all of Eluvium's album art. Although my girlfriend complains to me that it's just kitch.....

love his stuff, his sense of humour is genius, such a refreshing change to most brooding, philosophically bloated modern art nowadays

Piotr Dmochowski blows my mind.

I don't want to sound like a prick, guys, but it's actually Zdzisław Beksiński, probably one of the most known Polish artists (someone posted few of his works before as well). As a bit of a trivia, his son was working for the polish national radio and his specialty was all kinds of dark music from goth to new wave. He killed himself, and a few years later his dad, the painter was stabbed to death...

Now on topic, I like different kinds of stuff. I have a soft spot for Russian suprematism though, Maleviches infamous black square being one of my top favourites... Once I had a pleasure attending the exhibition holding all three below, in one room. I didn't go out that room for an hour (and now you know where does my avatar come from )



I find it amazing how one can go from this:



Through this:



and this:



To this:



More of other stuff to come!

Here I'm back to introduce another Polish artist, that some of you might like. His name was Witkacy, and he was a proper renaissance persona of the early 20th century - playwright, novelist, philosopher, photographer and painter (and damn good in all of these fields)

The most famous was his portrait studio, where he offered a range of options for the customers - from representational paintings, to the messed up images created with an assistance of various drugs (from coffee, through morphine to peyote) He would put a note on the painting with the name or chemical structure of the used substance.

Here we have sort of regular, art nouveau style pastel



And then we've got these:









And finally, some of his 'regular' paintings:

Fairy tale - Fantasy


Creation of the World


Visiting Maharaja


Hope you enjoy them!

those are fucking fantastic, i literally can't pick a favorite. guess im sort of a plebe cause i cant recall ever seeing any of those besides maybe one or two

[idontreallygiveashit]

I dont know the "meaning" or point or whatever behind this one but i like it purely from an aesthetic point of view.

Im no art aficionado or pretentious enough to claim to know anything about art that isn't kitsch, but fuck - this shit right here makes my eyes feel good:

I like this a lot.. Is it an old hermetic woodcut or made to look like one.. I think the latter, but it's good nonetheless.
