Art: Andy Warhol's body of work

copied from /mu/

>>641939

ANDY WARHOL? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?

Doesn't surprise me it's from /b/ as only a retard could make such an atrocity.

crossposting cancer

>>641948
What's the album in the music box?

>>641972
it clearly says Stravinsky

>>641960
Yes I'm entirely serious. Andy Warhol is the single greatest artist of the 20th Century. I can't even think of someone close. Most of my other favorites are pre-20th century btw.

sage

Lit: Ada Or Ardor
Mu: David Bowie - Heroes
Tv: McCabe & Mrs. Miller
V: Pokemon Second Gen
Art: Gorky - The Liver is the Cock's Comb

Lit: Gravity's Rainbow
Music: Loveless
Film: Godfather
Vidya game: LOZ: OOT
Art: idk?

No. Please stop this.

>>641987

I understand Warhol's importance, but do you honestly take anything away from his work or do you just say, oh that's nice. He just seems completely devoid of substance, and it's pretty obvious that's the case when he admits that he's just a whore in it for the money.

>>641989
heroes, imma let you finish, but low was the bowies best berlin-era album

This board has terrible taste in video games

What the fuck is the "art" window for? Is it implying that literature, music, film, and videogames are not art? I'll take it as a wildcard..

Lit: 2666
Music: 4′33″
Film: Apocalypse Now Redux
Vidya: Planescape: Torment
Art: Fountain

>>642006
I think he affected a shallow personality because he had social anxiety. His comments on difference and repetition remind me of the structuralist theory with which he was contemporary, but instead of talking about it he created something tangible to represent it. His ideas were widely misunderstood. The fact that pop art became a fad was just confirming everything he said about american culture. And besides that, he is very talented and also a socialist at heart. He was a satirist.

>>642020
>4'33''
troll detected

>>642017

2666 was published in the 21st Century.

>>642022

So you're agreeing with me that pop art is a blight on the planet?

>>642026

He started writing it in the 20th, so I count it for both. Ficciones if 2666 doesn't count.

>>642029
When it isn't Andy Warhol, it's pretty bad. The point with Warhol was that he was America's only situationist. Yeah by the time pop-art became self aware, and went meta it became pretty terrible.

>>642025

Why? I think Cage took music to it's most extreme conclusion, pretty much being both the apex and the end of the art form. As such it's the greatest musical piece of art of the 20th century.

(This is just gonna be a list of shit I like the most, obviously)
Lit: Infinite Jest
Music: Bromst
Film: There Will Be Blood
Vidya: Planescape: Torment (god bless the other anon who said this)
Art: Kandinsky, Composition VII

>>642042
you know what, i'll bite. i do think John Cage is amazing, but this piece was just to make fun of people wasn't it? it was a troll.

>>642044
The 20th fucking century

literaturefags dont believe in videogames, they'd rather have fantasy world that they cant control

Lit: We by Yevgeny Zamyatin
Music: Robert Johnson
Film: Le Voyage dan la Lune

Art: Hannah Höch- Cut with the Dada Kitchen Knife through the Last Weimar Beer-Belly Cultural Epoch in Germany

Stravinsky - Petrushka / Prokofiev - Sonata for Piano No. 7 / Webern - Variations for Piano, Op. 27 / Boulez - Sonata for Piano No. 2 (Pollini / DG / 1972, 1978, V0)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GX4XFSOS

one of the very best survey of 20th century classical masterpieces by one of its most accomplished exponent. All in one disc too, doesn't get much better than this.

>>642051
That is such an obnoxious statement.

>>642058
I liked We, but I don't think it's the best. Well, that's just like my opinion, man.

This retarded board does not know the difference between 20th and 21st century.

Lit: We by Yevgeny Zamyatin
Music: Robert Johnson
Film: Le Voyage dans la Lune

Literature: Andrei Bely, Petersburg
Art: Claude Monet, Impression Sunset

>>642059

HAHHAAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

>>642074
That's because all games from before the 21st century suck lol

Deus Ex was released in 2000, so it counts as being from the 20th century, right?

>>642074

No.

>>641939
>Waiting for Godot

/mu/tant here. I just made a post on our thread expressing my disapproval that no one had mentioned this after 150+ posts. I guess not EVERYONE on /lit/ has shitty taste in books.

>>642079
Not all of them sucked, just technical quality of games is a lot better in the 21st

>>642087
inb4 rreinstallan

>>642079

people who play videogames would disagree

>>642092

>>642089
thats a play, you moron

>>642111
Which is literature

literaturefags: i dont like videogames writers are so much better

videogames are stupid even though they require architects, teams of art designers, and mathematictions

its just so unsophisticated

>>642089
Since it wasn't written by Camus, Nietzsche or Orwell or Ellis or Ayn Rand, it doesn't get mentioned much here.

>>642117
Popular films are even worse and they require much more

>>642115
Most certainly not! what next? opera? music? hollywood cinema? oh, bugger off!

>>642111
So plays aren't literature? My, what an informed board we have here...

>>642117

Yeah! Concept art is definitely serious art, guys!

>>642117
hey, literaturefag here and i don't feel this way at all in fact i heard about some mind blowing video game but i can't remember it's title. christ..this will bug me...it's an adaptation of some kind.. anyway /r/ thought provoking videogame titles that are adaptations (not dante's inferno)

WHY WOULD U EVER want to experience something first hand when you could read about it

silly willys

>>642131
nevermind i reminded myself they are adapting Lars Von Trier's AntiChrist into a fucking videogame if you haven't seen it watch it and then realize how crazy a videogame adaptation of it would be. ..... . .. . DO IT FAGGOTS

>>642146
Yea, that's why I travel to different parts of the world sometimes and see new places and meet new people

Fucking Catcher in the Rye...
NO!

>>642168

>>642177
It's a really good book. You can't deny it.

Slaughterhouse-Five
Dmitri Shostakovich - 24 Preludes & Fugues, Op. 87
Aguirre, the Wrath of God

>>642185
Aguirre is also such a sweet film the part where that raft is stuck on the river first i was like fffffuuuuu.jpg but then i was like everything turned out better than expected.

>>642177
not trollin, srsly, bro
it's a good book
a good album

okay game
i couldn't really decide so i went with Warhol

>>642192
yea hating CitR is the hipster thing to do yet it is called a hipster book by the hipsters who hate it............fucking borders.

Lit. Catch-22
Music- Revolver- The Beatles
Film- Pulp Fiction
Art- Gustav Klimt's body of work as a whole
Video game- i really don't know...

>>642205
No, I seriously hate it. It's dire and totally undeserving of its acclaim.
It's not art at all.
And I'm nothing like a hipster.

>>642211
<3 klimt
>>642213
yeah i just think it's hip to hate the book, not the one who said it was the 20th century's best, though. i'm not saying that you can't hate it all on your own.

>my face when "art" category responses

I just took a 20th Century Art final and what the FUCK is this.

Shape up, /lit/. I believed in you!

Being pretentious.

Being myself

Lit: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
Music: Sugarhill Gang
Film: Dark Knight, fuck yes,
Vidya: Legend of Zelda
Art: Dave Gibbons

>>642261
why do people like aguirre more than stroszek?

>>642267
Because it was a better film. But seriously, the whole people-gaining-power-then-failing-horribly schtick is always a huge plus. Think Citizen Kane. And I liked the storyline and aesthetics of Aguirre much better.

>>642274
Also, it had boat full of monkeys.

Lit:The Little Red Book
Music: "The White Album"
Film: Casablanca
Video game: Civilization 2
Art: The Hubble Telescope

>20th Century's greatest pieces of Art
>Art

So I heard you like Art so we put a Art in your Art so you can Art while you Art.

>>642306

win. how very meta

N.B. Pretty much anything by Francis Bacon would fit into the 'Art' section.

>>642452
You are probably entirely serious

>>642316
Is that Bladerunner under film? I can't tell just by looking at the scene.

inb4 it's something that should have been obvious

>>642452

>Margritte

>>642020
Apocalypse Now is smalltime compared to Aguirre.

Lit :Atlas Shrugged. Not trollan, its impact in immeasurable.
Mu: Whether we like it or not, The Beatles
Film: I'll go with Julius Caesar. It has to be something from Brandos early work.
VG:lol
Art: Geiger. It changed everything.

I'm sorry if any of my picks aren't subtle enough for you.

>>642464
Magritte pretty much has a 90% chance of being better than any other art response in this thread. Don't knock him, at the very least.

Legend of Zelda I don't give a shit about, though.

>>642469
My mom's name is Margaret. Freudian slip

>>642477
I meant to respond to someone else. Sorry

lit: i'll say Atlas Shruged as well ... but hard to pick one
music: St. Peppers
film: hard to pick one ... Star Wars ...
vid: don't know, don't care
art: picasso

All I can say is that something from Surrealism or American Social Realism painting belongs in the Art section

>>642466
It's Apocalypse Now

Sorry, I thought it would be fairly obvious.

lit: Ulysses
mu: Sgt. Pepper's
film: The Battleship Potempkin

Lit: Don't know
Music: Don't know
Film: Don't know
Video game: Planescape: Torment

Y'all fuckers know this to be true.

meh

Why are people posting There Will Be Blood as the greatest film? Are you serious? You obviously don't know much about cinema.

>>642502
Fuck really? This is coming from someone who watched Apocalypse Now, although a decade ago. Thinking about it, I can only remember the cards on the dead bodies scene, the trenches, mangoes, and the ending. Have to watch it again.

>>642581

Hahahahaha

>>642633
You obviously don't know much about 'pinions
Protip: People gonna have 'em.

>>642644

You obviously don't know much about the 20th century. Protip: There Will Be Blood was released in the 21st century.

Of course anybody who lists Sartor Resartus as the greatest book of all time is going to like anal.

Where else is he going to stick his cock but in some teufelsdreck.

that's an accomplishment to not pick a single thing from the 20th century

>>643150
I doubt many in this thread do. It's /lit/, dude. The board to go to so you can learn how to better fake literacy? Not some kind of board for, you know, actually discussing literature you've actually read.

Sorry for the shitty quality.

I'm working with paint only

Oh, and vidya games in the 20th century mostly sucked, so I picked Heavy Rain instead

>>641902

in comparison to the other centuries of the modern period, the 20th century was pretty lackluster in all of these realms. except obviously the ones that were created in the twentieth century.

video game: Super Mario Bros. 3
film: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly (however, I have not seen nearly as many films as i should have)
