<p>bump I like art.</p>

[wjhsxc]

<p>There are so many to choose from! These are ones I can stare at for hours, even if they don’t always convey a sense of depth and artisty whatnot. They look cool, if nothing else. </p>

<p>I especially like this one, but for other reasons: <a href=“http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/89/Thomas_Cooper_Gotch_-_The_Exile_1930.jpg[/url]”>http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/89/Thomas_Cooper_Gotch_-_The_Exile_1930.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Anything by sir lawrence alma-tadema. they’re so rich in detail and color and…everything</p>

<p>“the fountain” by Duchamp</p>

[proletariat2]

<p>Kandinsky is my favorite artist; I love all of his works.</p>

<p>I’m also a big Malevich fan: [File:Malevich.black-square.jpg</a> - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Malevich.black-square.jpg]File:Malevich.black-square.jpg”>File:Malevich.black-square.jpg - Wikipedia)
Here’s a Magritte painting I especially like: [File:The</a> Human Condition 1935.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Human_Condition_1935.jpg]File:The”>File:The Human Condition 1935.jpg - Wikipedia)
Egon Schiele (for fans of Klimt): [File:Egon</a> Schiele 012.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Egon_Schiele_012.jpg]File:Egon”>File:Egon Schiele 012.jpg - Wikipedia)
Millais was my favorite of the Pre-Raphaelites: [File:Millais</a> - Ophelia.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Millais_-_Ophelia.jpg]File:Millais”>File:Millais - Ophelia.jpg - Wikipedia)
Oooh, Paul Klee: [url=<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tale_à_la_Hoffmann_by_Paul_Klee_1921.jpg]File:Tale”>File:Tale à la Hoffmann by Paul Klee 1921.jpg - Wikipedia]File:Tale</a> </p>

[dunbar]

<p>^ Props for the Klee, though I don’t really like anything from dada on, there’s just not much meaning to it.</p>

[Altsustar]

<p>[Dream</a> of the Fisherman’s Wife - Hokusai](<a href=“http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/44/Dream_of_the_fishermans_wife_hokusai.jpg]Dream”>http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/44/Dream_of_the_fishermans_wife_hokusai.jpg)</p>

<p>Yeah. That’s pretty much it.</p>

Ah, love: “Starry Night Over the Rhone” by Vincent Van Gogh

That one’s good. I like just about everything Van Gogh made with yellow in it (<a href=“http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b4/Vincent_Willem_van_Gogh_128.jpg/300px-Vincent_Willem_van_Gogh_128.jpg[/url]”>http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b4/Vincent_Willem_van_Gogh_128.jpg/300px-Vincent_Willem_van_Gogh_128.jpg&lt;/a&gt;), especially given the history behind it.</p>

[Kiwi_Nights]

<p>Agree, anything including the word “starry” by Van Gogh (MoMA had a “Van gogh nightlife special exhibit” earlier this year, it was heavenly). They resonate so powerfully with me for some reason. I also love anything by Vermeer. </p>

<p>Also love Lee Krasner - in my eyes she pwns her husband. A particular favorite of mine is Gaea ([MoMA</a> | The Collection | Lee Krasner. Gaea. 1966](<a href=“http://www.moma.org/collection/object.php?object_id=79162]MoMA”>http://www.moma.org/collection/object.php?object_id=79162)) Veniamviam, I love all the Judith paintings, too. When I first saw Caravaggio’s, I could not take my eyes off it. </p>

<p>Being a regular history geek as well, I love any paintings on the Tudors. But my favorite is probably this incredibly inaccurate but emotional painting of Lady Jane Grey’s execution: <a href=“Heilige, Namenstage, Patrone - Ökumenisches Heiligenlexikon”>Heilige, Namenstage, Patrone - Ökumenisches Heiligenlexikon; The actual painting is enormous and pretty moving.</p>
