Flipped through a whole Max Ernst art book in the rare books section of my closest McNally’s. Went after I was a bit down and was inspired enough to feel better after
This painting is so captivating and memorable to me 😍😍 I'd love to see it in person someday. Also, there's a book named after this painting by Alan Burns which is supposedly very good.
One of my favourite art books is this compilation of works by french artist power couple Jean-Michel Nicollet b.1944 & Keleck (Jacqueline Barse) b.1946 It features a curation of strange dark and surreal illustrations from both artists who’s work has been featured in publications like Métal Hurlant (Heavy Metal Magazine) and some as cover illustrations for the Titres/SF science fiction collection from Jean-Claude Lattès.
Hyman Bloom's paintings are phenomenal, so visceral, so rich with color and texture. seeing his work irl was so deeply moving. i really cherish the book i got of his paintings, i'm always returning to it for inspiration and just to enjoy his bold approach to the medium.
Man. I’m most active on this app, Tumblr, Letterboxd, Substack, Pinterest, and Spotify, and I play the guitar recreationally, and I drink a bunch of coffee, and I love old American Apparel, and I go to local shows, and my bag of choice is a tote bag, and I love Wes Anderson movies, and I’m bi. I’m so cooked.
