Paintings - Art Images

[Oskar Dirlewanger]

There's a lot of images threads, but I haven't seen one for nice paintings. I'll start and post a few.

H.R. Giger, Hommage à Böcklin (1977)

The original was the favourite painting of Adolf Hitler and I find it very entertaining and fitting that Giger would draw a cover of it.

Salvator Rosa, Witches at their Incantations (1646)

How can you not love this shit, so much is going on. All these witches are up to no good and they are doing a lot of cool things, there's a large ass spooky weird skeleton here too.

Edvard Munch, Sister Inger (1884)

My favourite Munch painting and one of my favourite portraits, just look at this, almost entirely black and looks very futuristic, this bitch looks cool as fuck clad all in black and she knows it.

Stu Mead, Burning at the Stake (2014)

By far my favourite contemporary painter, I picked this painting just since it's the most SFW I could find. Very consistent artist, all paintings are about satanic and pedo shit, expect lots of little girls getting fucked by pervs/satan/dogs/crocodiles. Truly a renaissance type artist in the modern day.

Don't know what this one is called, but from what I remember it was supposed to be a visual image of what a nightmare looks like.

 

[Harnessed Carcass]

We've all seen the crossing of Delaware, but damn if it ain't a beautiful piece of art.

Another Edvard Munch Classic

a lil Fauvism

Visually it somehow reminds me of Julian Antonisz, a director of animated movies. He used to burn and melt the film tape to achieve this sort of decayed aesthetic.

Any kind of art that depicts the violent death of filthy barbarians is kosher in my book.

 

[The Sauce Boss]

The Death of General Wolfe, Benjamin West (1770). One of the first paintings I can ever remember seeing. Nothing else particularly special about it, I just like it.

Fuck yeah, I remember having a book about the October Revolution with El Lissitzky's Red Wedge as the cover, it's quite awesome, early bolshevik art was great but I think where they were really excelling was architecture, some of the designs from that period were insane. Hypermassive rotating monuments aligned to movements of the planet, count me in.

This had the potential to be one of the most awesome buildings in the history of architecture, but according to the legend there wasn't enough steel in the entire Soviet Union to realize the project.

This is a very healthy and accurate instinct, given how the final stroke of european art was orientalism, not necessarly killing, but countless depictions of enslaving barbarians, specificallly innumerable artworks of slave markets and harems. Many people not realize this but this was the peak of european art, continued only by some low brow illustrators like Frazetta or Bisley.

Alexei Leonov recently died. He made some interesting paintings based on his career as a cosmonaut.

John L: I believe its safe to say that WWII played a major part in the artist's outlook of the universe. The destruction caused by the Nazis, and then the Soviets were horrible and must have had an everlasting impression on him. After all, he was only 11 when the war began, and 16 when it ended with occupation. No wonder he was so happy on the outside and so preoccupied with death and destruction in his subconscious, which found its way into his art.

Zuzanna Sendor: This is not entirely true. He was often asked about the war's influence on his work and this is what he said in one of the interviews (rough translation from Polish) : "I was 10 when the war began. I was raised on comic books, death rays and Martians so I expected that war will bring spectacular experiences. Yet, war in my opinion as a child was just a change of the officials and bad food. Then it's rather difficult to admit I'm painting the catastrophe of war that I remember from childhood. Honestly speaking, I was actually disappointed with the lack of *special effects*. That's the way I'd put it. Of course I saw the dead and I survived the longlasting front, but for children such things are like water off duck's back." (quote from his art dealer's site http://beksinski.dmochowskigallery.net/introduction.php)

If I was into wall art, I'd plaster every surface with Zdzislaw Beksinski's work.

I love El Greco (The Greek) paintings. His real name was Doménicos Theotokópoulos, and he was a painter, sculptor and architect of the spanish Renaissance.

Although he was a recognized artist at his time, his work was rediscovered in the XX century by the Expressionist and Cubist painters.

I'm a tremendous mark for Simon Stalenhag's style of fantastic realism.

This thread needs some Frazetta, or as I like to call him, Art Daddy

Here's Frank himself, the most Chad fantasy artist.

I mentioned Frazetta earlier in this thread, truly one of the last great artists of white civilization. My favourite illustrator gotta be Olivier Ledroit though:

If the drawings are that good and the story involves shit like Mother Theresa getting reincarnated as a sexy ghoul pirate to lead an assault on Dracula, it's art.

Ooh, this guy is fuckin' badass. I've seen his work in Heavy Metal magazine a few times and it always knocks my socks off.

I will be the heretic and post modern ... ugh ... digital art.
But take heed!
This motherfucker does the <<<digital>>> canvas equivalent of using every trick in the book.
Photos. Models. WTF algorithms.

Money well spent you crazy Russian.
