I’m speaking mainly of painting, but it doesn’t have to just be about painting.

I’m not an art expert, but I do enjoy a lot of traditional art, like Renaissance painting, as well as impressionism. I do have a thing for the surrealists too, Magritte in particular. I’ll admit that artists like Rothko don’t do much for me.

What are your thoughts on modern or abstract art? Are you open to it or do you prefer more traditional works? Does some of it seem like “anyone could’ve painted it”? Where’s the line between good abstract art and overvalued charlatanism?
