Ah, my favorite? Ooooh...thats tough. I always was very partial to Asian Art. Music, literature, painting. You name it. I think the Eastern culture is simply fascinating.

I'd say Asia, all through out time has produced my favorite art.

mine is reinacense, perfectionism, precision, and religion (so?..), thanks to Leonardo (Leo!)... DaVinci, we know a lot more about the human anatomy, he used to study dead bodys , plus he is my art hero, i love the way he draws ( i think he used chalk)

I haven't taken Art History or Art Appreciation yet, but I love Salvador Dali's art. I think its awesome how there are hidden images in most of his paintings. I wrote a report on him in Drawing I so I got to look at alot of his works. I also love Fleischer's art for the same reason. You can look at a paintings for an hr and still not notice everything in it.

I am currently working on a webpage on Renaissance art....I have seen Leonardo's notebooks in my university's library. If you can read backwards Italian, knock yourself out.

hmm

The Renaissance. Michelangelo's The Sistine Chapel is without a doubt the single greatest work of graphic art ever made.

w00t!!! Dali is my hero! (at least art-wise). I have a huge "Clock Explosion" print on my wall.

Here is another Dali fave, "Narcissus"


In answer to the original question at hand: Surrealism (c. 1920's-1950's) and the Black And White Era (c. 1984-present).

Jeeeeze this is a toughy...I've never picked out a favorite art period OR artist...I've just sort of liked or at least respected everything. If I had to choose one thing I guess I'd go with...guh...can't remember what it's called, but the period that monastaries started making the first picture books in so they could reach out to those of the lesser fortunate people(who usualy were illiterate so really had help from the fact that pictures told the stories). That or any ancient art peirods of Japan. X.x

My favorite artistic period is the Neoclassical age of the late 18th/early 19th Century. My favorite artist of the period is jacques Louis David. I like the romantic/heroic/tragic images depicted in non-abstract form that represent all of the best and worst in Revolutionary/Napoleonic Europe.

Renaissance is really cool, but so is the modern stuff that takes hours to figure out. i was in an art museum and there were three or four panels of solid colors on the wall, and i was really confused, but then i stared at them awhile then i looked on the white wall and it was really cool! i always fall for optical illusions.

this is REALLY easy for me... the Impreshionist peroid. I've actuall gotten to see some Monet's in real life (he's my favorite artist). It was just amazing how they blended strange colors together to make diffrent hues of another.
