He has incredible work.
Well that settled what I am putting up next. Bryan Larsen. @Alexander Pechorin great stuff.
A piece a friend of mine commissioned
Thomas Eakins was the greatest American painter, thus proving once again Philadelphia to be the greatest place in the country
“Triumph of Icarus”
very tasteful
Wow, his stuff is pretty affordable.
I call this the Loomer in the Lucas.
whats the medium Conway?
@Conway - OK Cursed
As far as modern art is concerned, Italian Futurism is cool. It arose in the early 20th century out of a sense that Italian culture was seen as something that happened in the past. Italian Futurism was thus a way for young Italians to shock their country out of what they viewed as deep cultural stagnation.

Vegas for dinner with some manufacturers out here. I reassuring sight.
No, @Wood-Ape - OK/MN was right. the medium is "cursed"
@Reinhard Wolff Futurism is dope
Wasn’t Evola and artist for a short spell?
Evola was involved with Dadaism.
@Reinhard Wolff I'd need to see some better examples. Doesn't appeal to me.
@Reinhard Wolff The architectural influence of futurism is pretty miniscule nowdays but was always my favorite part of it
He drew the famous covers to many of his books, IIRC
The above is an example of modern art being EPIC.
eh the second one isn't bad I suppose.
Yeah, *Metropolis* aesthetic.
@Reinhard Wolff DADAISM IS TRASH REEEEEEEEEEEE
I didn't mean Dadaism was epic. I'm not too knowledgeable on the genre but I haven't liked what I've seen.
Anyone remember the artist tht did neo-art deco for original blade runner?
Tasteful Italian futurism feels like a spiritual cousin of Art Deco.
Futurism came first
@Virgil Gross.
Futurist architecture taken to the extreme
Very much so, that would make sense that the architecture followed
@Virgil have you ever squeezed cheese out of something with holes in it?
Some of the examples I'm looking at of IT futurism are really indulgent and gross.
I always liked the landscape and nature prints at Cabellas
