1. German Art.
I’ve always loved German Art, especially their modern art such as Neue Sachlichkeit (New Objectivity) and Expressionism. I recently went to a new exhibition at a local gallery on German Expressionism and I came across an artists I hadn’t seen before and his work blew me away, it was stunning. His name is Lyonel Feininger, the picture I’ve used is Gaberndorf II (1924) as I couldn’t find the picture I saw at the exhibition but this is close. Google him and you find many wonderful images.
I love all the sharp angles and the colours he uses, such as dark earthy colours for more industrial scenes and bright colours of towns. They are very modern images and reminded me of Italian futurist paintings of around the same period.
For anyone interested I recommend looking him up

About me

Hey my name is Bethany and this is just a space for me to share the jumbled mess in my head and anything that's interesting, funny or just plain weird.
I'm currently a Masters student, so if I suddenly go quiet my head is buried in a book or my whole body is buried under a mountain of work. My interests are vast and differing so there will all sorts of oddities on here as a result.
Hope you all enjoy and if you have any questions or just want to share something, just drop me a line and I'll try and get back to you ASAP ^_^
