Love of Artists

[BestButchBoy]

To me, artists come in all forms. I came across this early today and I didn't really know too much of her before but found this rather fascinating, on so many different levels.

Worth a share and a read.

The Dutch Post-Impressionist master.
Van Gogh spent his early life as an art dealer, teacher and preacher in England, Holland and Belgium. His period as an artist began in 1881 when he chose to study art in Brussels, starting with watercolours and moving quickly on to oils. The French countryside was a major influence on his life and his early work was dominated by sombre, earthy colours depicting peasant workers, the most famous of which is The Potato Eaters, 1885.

It was during Van Gogh's studies in Paris (1886-8) that he developed the individual style of brushwork and use of colour that made his name. In 1888 he moved to Arles where the Provençal landscape provided his best-known subject matter. However, it also marked the start of his mental crisis following an argument with his contemporary Paul Gauguin. Van Gogh was committed to a mental asylum in 1889 where he continued to paint, but he committed suicide in 1890.



Sparkle, I also appreciate Kapoor's sculpture, you, and Reader welcome to the thread.

Another part of Vincent,that is important,is that he was a communist,and tried to form the Communist art collective In Paris,with the other early post impressionist,Gauguin,Cezanne,Lautrec,with his brother Theo as the seller,and all the money of sold work was to be used to provide a sanctuary,where artists could,just create.So no matter who sold works the money would be collectivized a very radical time in Paris.
