Self-Portrait by Cuno Amiet, 1920, Private Collection

#ArtHistory #ModernArt #Divisionism #PostImpressionism

Amiet focused intensely on the expressive power of pure color, studying with the Pont-Aven School before experimenting with Fauvism, Expressionism, and Divisionism. He created over 4,000 total works in his lifetime, with more than 1,000 of those being self-portraits that charted his aging and artistic evolution.

September's theme: Labor
EDWARD BURTYNSKY (born 1955), “Highway #1, Los Angeles, California, USA”, 2003. Agnes Etherington Art Centre, Kingston, Ontario, Canada.
#arthistory #art #photography #UrbanGaze #Burtynsky

Highway cloverleafs are a potent symbol of a labor force that commutes – sometimes for hours on end – to work each day. The Canadian photographer Edward Burtynsky has spent his career “bearing witness to the impacts of human industry on the planet”, as he explains on his website. Born in St. Catharines, Ontario, located on the southern shore of Lake Ontario, his interest in the natural world and how it is changed by human activity began early with observing shipping on the Great Lakes. His photographs have captured strip mines, refineries, quarries and ship-breaking in compositions that approach abstract art in their intricacies. “Highway #1, Los Angeles, California, USA” was a shot taken from a helicopter of the intersection of the 105 and 110, officially the Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange. This interchange has been nicknamed “The Cathedral” for its complex structure consisting of five levels, flyover connector ramps, light rail system and a bus transit station on the lower level. You may recognize this piece of Los Angeles from its movie “roles” in LaLaLand and Speed. Burtynsky has composed his photograph to highlight the beauty of its pattern and geometry without ignoring the devastation to the surrounding landscape. He is well aware of the cost of progress.

Demon — Wonderful Russian Symbolist image by Vrubel: buff.ly/T8EkfJN Mikhail Vrubel’s brooding, jewel-toned style fuses mythic drama with psychological depth, a standout of late-19th-century Russian Symbolism that helped shape early modernist art. #ArtHistory #Vrubel

The notebook must contain both the wild idea and the quiet doubt. One without the other is incomplete thinking.

Wall of Light Desert Night by Sean Scully, 1999, Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth (Texas)

#ArtHistory #ContemporaryArt #ColorFieldPainting #AbstractArt

This piece belongs to Scully's famous Wall of Light series, which merges the solid feel of ancient stone walls with the soft, glowing nature of light.

Deep velvety blues represent the night sky, sun-bleached tones evoke the ground, and shimmering grays suggest moonlit desert plants. The work was inspired by a night drive into the Nevada desert and the Valley of Fire during a trip to Las Vegas.

Authoritarians generally prefer public art that either glorifies or commemorates, and the only subject worth glorifying and commemorating in 2026 is Donald J. Trump.

Put his name on it and spray gold everywhere in the Oval Office.

Now that's art. Or something.

George Catlin painted View in the Cross Timbers, Texas while touring with his Indian Gallery, a traveling record of the American frontier he built alone, on horseback, before the land changed for good. A river cuts through green hills toward a hazy horizon. #art #arthistory #AmericanArt #GeorgeC...

An oil painting landscape by George Catlin. In the foreground, a grassy green hill with two rounded peaks rises close to the viewer. Beyond it, a wide river winds through a valley, its pale blue-green water bordered by sandy tan banks. Rolling green hills covered in vegetation stretch across the middle ground on both sides of the river, receding into a hazy blue-green mountain range on the horizon. The sky above is pale cream and blue, with a soft rust-orange cloud streak drifting near the top center of the
