Not a big fan of Rothko's later work, but his early stuff I enjoy, before he got so minimalist. Pollock is great. Subjectively.

You are an idiot if you seriously think that a child -- with little to no experience and knowledge within the field of art and design -- could do something like that.

I'm sure if you made something non-objective it would be shit-tier by comparison because you are too ignorant to tell the difference. Go ahead and try it, we'll be waiting.

>> No.2205357

Very easy answer actually. It's Velázquez.
You just compare the amount of information each artist uses to make their works.
Velázquez is so far beyond any other artist technically, it's silly to state otherwise.

But that doesn't mean you'll like his work. As you did ask for objectively.

I really like the subject matter of his paintings. He painted more humble people than most portrait artists, and the portraits of the royals were almost comically excessive.

I think Michelangelo is the greatest.
He was primarily a sculptor, however he painted one of the most magnificent frescos ever and he didn't give up because he suffered greatly during it's creation.
You can never fault him for being complacent and weak.

From a technical standpoint he's definitely gunning for the top. As far as depth goes though, he's not even close to the greatest of all time.

>> No.2205430

>greatest artist of all time
Raphael because of his universal qualities.

>deepest and most symbolic work
I don't know about specific art work, but it wouldn't be far wrong to look for deepest works in Poussin and Mantegna.

I have mad respect for the Hudson River Dicks but they glorified the shit out of the Canadian wilderness. If you want some proper wilderness art refer to the Group Of Seven, who worked similar to the Hudson school but favoured Alla Prima techniques and working directly in nature to capture a scene with it's smells, vibrancy and feeling rather then take a study and glorify it in paint. GoS were actually amazing plein air goons, hauling gear all over near untouched northern Ontario using landscape as God. True artists.

Fuck the Hudson Dicks bud.

>what will be remembered in thousands of years
Probably whatever scraps of canvas that hold up that long and whatever people have an interest in that can be scavenged from whatever archive of wikipedia was found on a old drive. Fires and bombs happen, where do you think a majority of the Vorticist works went? All that's left is a few select pieces and whatever was printed in BLAST.

If the statue of david wasn't made out of a giant fucking rock it probably would have been looted or destroyed by now. But it's hard to fuck with a giant hunk of rock.
