anyone can tell me which monarch is that boy at 35:58 ?
or at least the author of the painting?

Not all the modern art is degenerate. Some of it is beautiful
I find Mondrian a bit repetitive

Isn't that Raskolnikov?

fuck off that's not art. It doesn't express anything (other than, perhaps, an ugly aesthetic).

WHY ARE NIGGER SO WORTHLESS

Asians at least are industrious and effective. Why are whites the only Real Race?

Niggers can't do anything aside from shaking their asses like a baboon with worms

I don't know if it expresses anything, I just think it looks good

read a book

no, its name translates as 'unexpected visitor' and its about an exiled revolutionary that came back home to his family

It looks retarded, like a stupid doodle

an easy explanation of this is that art of black people uses the words "European" and "(foreign culture's adjective here)" more than art depicting europeans.

(you)

This

Fills me with pride just seeing it

No, it does. Say, someone, who has no idea of something that you normally see in art (horses eg) he only sees form, color, lines. This is the same, retard. It's universal art. It may not be the best, but, as Kierkegaard said it, perfecting an artform makes it dull, boring -- doing it contrarian makes an act of rebellion (paraphrased)

...

Huh, I know that I saw it on /lit/ with Crime and Punishment.

...

fuck that blog

...

there's big blog on russian reddit-like collective blog telling stories behind the famous paintings and meaning of every fucking detail, truly gergeous
gound it

...

Is that depicting the Boxer rebellion?

...

...

Doesn't that depict something shameful, some xmas morning throat cuttings or some shite like that?

Everyone have their own opinion I guess. Delacroix was a great artist btw.

I have a copy of the book with the same cover.

wtg swissfag, posting shit copy

will look up to it

but it's shit

...

...

yes, you will if you really want to my friend.

Dont lose hope, someday you will find a qt 3.14 just for you.

Pro tip: Lifting helps

great at making stupid doodles, I guess

Everyone needs something to grasp onto

Its not your culture if you dont practice it, retard

allright, now some paintings from modern time artists

...

African art does not even exist

>irony

HAKKAPELIITTA :DDDDD XDDD

...

>great at making stupid doodles, I guess
Do you even know what you are talking about ? Delacroix is the guy who painted the painting which was posted by you. The paintings I've posted were made by Kandinsky.

Long live Christ the King!!!

...

Fuck i want to show Cred Forums my paintings so bad, but i dont have any photos now

Anyway, i really think that you should do something instead of criticizing and staying on your computer all day
If dont make art, you cant really have an opinion

One of my fav books growing up, where's the trump edit tho?

...

>If dont make art, you cant really have an opinion
That's fucking retarded

>If dont make art, you cant really have an opinion

wtf I hate brazilians now

read the thread, that image was already posted.

>I think this looks good

1. So, are we to say that art that has literally no meaning or identifiable forms is the same as art that has meaning in context and identifiable forms (which are only identifiable to, say, 99% of the population), which is usually known VERY WELL by art experts?

2. Kierkegaard is wrong. Nobody would deny that Michelangelo's sculptures are more interesting than some 5 year old's "rebellious" sculpture. While a rebellious context has something to add to art, the fact that any given art piece is created in rebellion to tradition or consensus is in itself insider's knowledge and can not be claimed to be a development from plainly expressing rebellion by artistic expression as a form.

Nothing more hauntingly beautiful than a European stone circle designed to manipulate the light of the moon.

This. This. This.

There's a blatant agenda behind contemporary art and its complete degeneration of tradition. Its another cultural 'enrichment' and removal from European identity.

>not posting marine art

No

Washington was surrounded so in the middle of Christmas night he sailed across the Delaware river
With the army and buttfucked the British in Boston.

If he didn't escape with the army the continental congress would of surrendered.

...

i meant you cant have an opinion like "its just doodles"
conceptual art have different meaning than classical art, in my opinion

...

Painted by Zyklon Ben himself.

Those are incredibly beautiful.

Poitiers, 752

Cool guy

yeah, you can.

Someone had to carry General Washington's canteen and snacks.

This painting is awesome. Who painted this ?

Yep

I don't see any reason why it would be so, other than your fucking piece of shit pretentiousness of course

...

You know in "Red Dragon" where Francis goes in a murderous spree to appease the red dragon paining? Everytime I see this statue I know exactly how he was feeling.

Lifting doesn't help if you are socially retarded. Quite the opposite, it will only make you look scarier and less approachable

>i meant you cant have an opinion like "its just doodles"
Why not ? People can have the opinion they want.
>conceptual art have different meaning than classical art, in my opinion
I agree

Actually he was a Freeman apart of the New Hampshire militia

Reminder Dixie got btfo bahahahaha

no charge of the scots greys at waterloo

...

>piece of shit pretentiousness of course
i never said it wasnt, but some of them are p cool

i dont think this kind of art is meant to be in a museum and everything, but some are interesting

having a opinion like "its all shit" is very ignorant

Tsar Ivan's eyes is what gets EVERY TIME. That expression captured is truly the work of a genius. It's better than live-action movies.

Thank you

Ethiopian art and architecture is breddy cozy.

...

What is the story?

...

So, the attempt to reach perfection is dull? Is he implying that we should revel in shit because of the meaning we want to attach to shit? That's an attempt to deconstruct our pursuit of perfection, that's the mentality of someone who hides behind pretexts so that he's not forced to face his incompetence.

Pretentious, untalented garbage, kill thine self.
