I’ve been revisiting 60-70s art recently included the Japanese psychedelic inspired movement. My favorite artist out of them is probably Aquirax Uno.

I’m obsessed with the golden age of illustration. I’m nothing but JC Leyendecker’s little bitch, hoping to due several studies of his art soon.

Here’s a some drawings by Marjorie Cameron, she was an costume designer and artist who was involved with an occult lounge in the 50s in Los Angeles that included a rocket scientist and future Scientology founder L Ron Hubbard. I love how she uses lines. (1/2)

>>502667Yes, thank you anon, Cameron was the shit. She was an otherworldly woman and that energy radiates through her art so much.
As for what I think is garbage, I know this barely qualifies as last 100 years, but I never understood the hype around Modigliani. I kinda enjoy his early work but from 1916 onwards it’s all naive, pretentious, same-looking bullshit. There’s a reason he never made it big before he died and I don’t think that’s because his nudes were too scandalous at the time.
Not to mention he was a shitty person, who married a 19-year-old girl while in his late thirties and was
abusive to her.

Since were talking about illustrators, a favorite of mine is Maxfield Parrish.

There's a current exhibition going around the world about Ishida Tetsuya, a Japanese painter (1973-2005). It first started in Museo Reina Sofia and moved to Chicago. I wonder if they'll do more shows in other places. I went to see it and his work is even more beautiful up close.
His work is filled with real existential dread and nihilism, but it's also absurd and humorous? I love it and I can fangirl about his technical skills all day.

>>502722 Google tadanori yokoo, keichii tanaami, belladonna of sadness and the short films of Shuji terayama (I think there are some on YouTube). Also I think Takato Yamamoto has some that vibe but he’s contemporary.

>>502540Contemporary art isnt the last 100 years. Modernity begins mid 19th century, then you have modernism mid 20th century. Contemporary art is the last 30-40 years, more or less.
Pic attached is one of my favourite sculptors, John Chamberlain. He is of course, critically acclaimed but I do feel like any time I discuss him with someone (peers, professors, parents, friends), they all dislike him. So I was stoked when Dan Graham told me he loves Chamberlain because he was the only one (at his time) to truly understand how contemporary design correlated to art. I don't agree with that particulary statement but I still love him.
He did a lot of pieces where he would deconstruct cars, motorcycles, etc, and re-arrange them in sculptures. There's something incredibly dirty and at the same time clean about his work. And who doesnt love a bit of melted plexiglass, after all?
