I'm a pencil artist with an appreciation of good art, not that abstract art and pop art crap. Monet and da Vinci kick ass, Warhol sucks ass.

I don't know... Warhol's Death and Disaster series is pretty good.

yeah, visual art. And Otto Dix is great.

This thread will definitely expose the morons on OT.kurama2002

fixed.

Oh, and diped? If you're looking for virtuosity you might enjoy Chuck Close (I posted a link in my original post).:)

Are there? Personally I love art and I really enjoy painting. I'm going to study fine art at university next year.

Anyway, use this thread to discuss your favourite artists, periods and movements or even to post your own work - whether it be painting, photography or whatever. I doubt this thread will take off, but sure.:P

Some of my favourite artists and their work:

Mark Rothko

Chuck Close

Peter Doig

Only the bad ones do.Darth_Tyrev

are you saying David Bowie and Marc Bolan are bad?

I dont see that type of **** in any other genre of music....

Anti-Venom

what genre are you talking about? Anyway, it's not like it's anything new.

What? I love the group of people that make this argument just because Family Guy went mainstream after season 3.

While this wasn't a better family guy moment, the show is definitely still funny.

Family Guy didn't go mainstream, it just got bad.

It did go mainstream, but it just started sucking as well. It became part of the culture it was mocking. The jokes were no longer funny which just resulted in them being offensive. There are some jokes that are so offensive people will laugh at them just because they don't know how they should react. That's not comedy. The jokes are half-assed, the satire could be understood by a ten year old and it's poorly written.

Bob Dylan

Nick Drake

Neil Young

Elliott Smith

Leonard Cohen

....

I can't pick one.

Not funny.

Seasons 1 -3 of Family Guy were ok, but it's just not funny anymore.
