Art (Contemporary and Otherwise)

[Fade to Black]

thanks for that todestrieb, it's an ingenious concept. Will have to sit down and sit through that all in one uninterrupted go when I'm less tired, perhaps tomorrow.

The Jindřich Štyrský, Callahan and Moriyama photos up above are a treat as well, and Robert Frank is always great. This thread is one of the most inspiring and educational for me on SZ.

this painting is indeed really interesting. it makes me think of a scene in "inglorious bastard" by Quentin Tarantino.

Francis Bacon paintings almost always have the most intense effect on me.

I like a good amount of Jeff Jordan's stuff (did artwork for some of the mars volta albums), some isn't so good, but here are some of my favorites:
