Now that's a challenge for Brian to meet, if ever I saw one.Quote:

Don't know it...
I must say this thread has shown me that i know very little of non-expressionist painting ;)
That's the problem if your interest lies in one particular school of painting. Since childhood, I have had an interest in art in general but I know very little of post WWII painting except for some obvious things by Lucien Freud, Francis Bacon etc;probably because they are English artists. During the post-war period, the Americans appear to have taken the lead with people like Rothko, Pollock, Lichtenstein et al. I don't care for their work but the US publicity machine has made it well-nigh impossible to ignore them.Quote:

So now I know to post Post-War art if I want to stump Brian... but avoid Freud, Bacon, Rothko, Polloack, and Lichtenstein.:ciappa:

As for Freud, Rothko, Pollock, and Lichtenstein, I think pretty well anyone would recognise them these days, unless they had also produced work that didn't conform to what is generally known of them.

There will be a short delay while I discover how to post a picture without giving away too much.
