The great masters. (Clockwise from top) Salvador Dali of the revolutionary Surrealist movement, Vincent Van Gogh of the dynamic Post-Impressionism art movement, and Pablo Picasso of the groundbreaking Cubist movement. All of which had definitive art styles and produced work that highly emphasized on their own unique set of ideals, mindsets, perspectives. Despite several setbacks (particularly Van Gogh), they pursued their arts career with poise and confidence.
Each frame of each artist shows the innards of each of them. As seen from the pictures, their guts (or rather, their digestive systems) are painted with regards to the respective artist’s late artistic style (while they were still alive).
For Dali, his heart and his lungs are painted in an almost idealistic manner. Forms are well-defined, yet possessing a mystical-like quality, reminiscent to Dali’s artistic style.
Alternatively, with regards to Van Gogh, his internal organs are painted with such freedom, vitality and vigor. Arbitrary colours, just like how Van Gogh himself painted.
Finally, for Picasso, I can use one word to exemplify the way his organs were painted - Abstraction. Flat planes of colour (with little blending), (almost like a cartoon, I would say), delineated lines with varying thickness, inproportionate (and unrecognizable) forms! Honestly, who else but Picasso himself would paint this way?
I love how these 3 frames pay homage to 3 pioneer artists that impacted the course of art history. Splendid.
