I was just wondering which piece of Art or Artist do you enjoy...?

To start off I give you three Artists Henry Moore, Robert Mapplethorpe and Jackson Pollock.

Each one from differing disciplines but each wonderful in their own right.

I have a tattoo which is a combination of Persistance of Memory by Dali plus the famous Escher self portrait

We also have one half each of 'The Bond of Union' by Escher (pic on profile)

So Dali and Escher for me

We have seen 'Persistance' at the MOMA last year (special trip to see it)

We also went on a Dali pilgrimage to Figures (his birthplace) last year..,.

Liz loves Vincent and cried when she saw Stary Night when we went to see it in Amsterdam x

Safe to say We luvs a bit o art and wear it too x

Being a Glasgow boy...Mackintosh figures high...but the buildings that Frank Lloyd Wright are amazing and look way ahead of their time...

Alun Cochrane - he worked the same joke into a 10 minute routine 7-8 times and it worked, getting a bigger laugh each time. To me, that is art.

Massive massive fan of Gustav Klimt. My house is full of his stuff.

Also very fond of a local painter who is a very talented artist and creates very interesting oil paintings.

Actually there is... Sometimes we are just too busy to pay attention to it or see it as Art.

Check out Henri Cartier-Bresson's photography work.

Many of the above, plus a few more of our own...

Robert Lenkiewicz - (not for just his art, his life was rather awesome as well)

Nobuyoshi Araki - (One innocuous guy with a camera, staggering results)

Paula Rego (Yes, life is like that in her head!)

Nick Park (for creating the Wallace and Gromit – see the miniature sets if you ever get chance)

Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller (and your thought your personal space is weird!)
