/lit/ - Literature

The literary one.

Expressionism.

Now go away and get your own damn board.

stuckism

jesus

lol

I'm pretty comfortable with the post-modern movement we're participating in right now. As an artist, it allows me to steal from everyone I want :>

>>2860896
post some of your works

>>2860901

but that would be off-topic!

Early modernism.

socialist realism

>>2860910

>What's your favorite art movement and why?
>and why?

>>2860896
I'm also grateful for the wealth of styles laid out for us to take from. We are able, and seem to be, far more eclectic than ever before.

>>2860914
>implying im obligated to fulfil your demands

Absurdism is the best art movement because fish wear hats on main street while dogs play Monopoly in the park.

>>2860920
That's surrealism, faggot.

>>2860920
Are you the same faggot who started that thread bashing Absurdism while ignoring everybody trying to tell you you were using the term wrong?

>>2860919
woah we have a badass over here

do people really like art "movements" as a whole?
i dunno, abstract something-or-other. not pollock, fuck that guy
if someone asked what my favourite literary movement was it wouldn't include my favourite author, for instance, it would just be a group that i thought was cool because they hung out and had a decent time
so what do you mean by liking the movement?

>>2860933
Stop posting like a retard. Capitalization and punctuation helps is a good first step. Alternatively, you may find a more suitable board to post on, such as /b/.

>>2860936
and if idgaf about this what you gonna do faggot?

Futurism

>>2860941
What do you like about futurism?

>>2860936
man, i've been here since /r9k/ closed up shop... what, two years ago or something?
seriously, go fuck yourself

>>2860936
Stop being a pedant

>>2860940
thx for support... or trolling, whatever

>>2860936
He made a fine post, he just didn't capitalise anything. Stop being a prick.

Abstract Expressionism because I like the imagery and the difficulty and opposition the artists had creating it and living like bums makes it somehow more authentic and sincere.

>>2860996
>difficulty and opposition the artists had creating it

>financed by the CIA

pick one

I like Symbolism.

>>2860928
They're interrelated concepts, when you talk of absurdism in the literature sense and not the philosophic sense, and, given this is Lit, I'm free to assume the literature use. So the joke works for it as well.
>>2860924
No, I was the one arguing the usefulness of the concept and it's literary merit. and then I made pretty much the same kind of nonsense joke, but that time people didn't jump all over my ass for it, must be the clothes I'm wearing today.

>>2861012
You like nasty smut, Mr. Man. Clean up your act.

>>2861017
Have more Kubin!

>>2860942
It's probably the most morally agreeable art movement.

>>2861015
Nah, I'm not jumping on your ass, I just wanted to make sure you weren't that same faggot.

Your clothes look fine. Carry on.

>>2861028

I love how the Russian futurists accepted the tenets of Marinetti's Futurist manifesto, but they basically ignored Marinetti when he went to Russia to promote Futurism because they refused to acknowledge any authority.

>>2861049
That's hilarious.

I like realism, but agree with Picasso that photography made it obsolete.
So ... surrealism, I guess?

>>2861049
Oh those Russians. I'm really only acquainted with the Italians, but I've been meaning to check them out.

I'm also entertained by the late Futurist art featuring Mussolini.

>>2861015
absurdism in the literature sense is the philosophical meaning.

just use 'surrealism' and there is no confusion.

>>2861086
Why would I be trying to avoid confusion in a self-referential joke about absurdism?

>>2861000
There were many years beforethe CIA funded a few exhibitions. You should read up on them, might learn something

Don't think I have a "favorite" movement. Rather I have affinities for players in each movement, mostly the big names you've all heard, although some of them maybe you've only heard a handful of times. When it comes down to the present moment and backwards of, say, 100 years, there's really just so many various artists that have it goin on for completely different reasons.

In a different light, Conceptual Art is my least favorite movement. It's just so didactic and boring and has convinced the art world that artists are the one's who are going to solve the world's problems. The Conceptual Movement is not only a sad ideology but it has successfully distanced art from the general populace more than any other movement.

I'd probably say Surrealism if you wanted a snap answer. But if you wanted a deeper answer I enjoy what I enjoy.

All the movements Picasso had his hands on.

post-industrial prenatal semi-imbollical septenary wildlife afro-eurasian canopy experiemental religiousexperiential pop absurdistcore tele-art.

it's the only genre i like. anything less is for plebs.

Romanticism

>>2860887
So Gothic stuff, I guess

Primitivism always makes me happy, especially Gauguin. Most be the combination of beautiful naked girls and nice tropical environments and warm colours and a pleasant, friendly style of painting.

Impressionism
Postmodernism

I don't know shit about the visual arts, but most of my favorite literary artists did their work in the Modern era.

Dada because I'm a hipster.

The ideas behind it may interest me a little.
