Art History: (Featured Artist) Francis Bacon

In my opinion one of the best figurative artists of the XX C. And I would say that one that all art students should study carefully even if they do not like or aspire to paint in the same style.

        He did art? There was art there? Maybe I better watch again. Turn the sound W-A-A-Y up.

        LOL! Well, I am glad you liked the music. So far you didn’t like Lucian Freud or Bacon, that’s two strikes for me, let’s see if I can hit a home run on the next artist…

    I’m confused now F. I liked your assessment about Lucian Freud but am less enamoured with the work of Francis Bacon. It’s just my opinion of course, and as you know I bow to your better artistic knowledge.

      It’s always been a matter of taste and I fully understand, Bacon isn’t everyone’s cup of tea…
      But thank you Malc for the vote of confidence. All the best to you. Happy Middle of the Week! 😊

        But Malc, you have to accept that Francis Bacon was a very talented artist, well trained and much involved in the search for greater expression. Now, what he puts on a canvas, well, that is something for everyone to judge in accordance to their taste, I quite agree. All the best to you Malc. I just went and bought my wine for the middle of the week «wine time» and my God! Wine is so expensive in the US!!!

        It would be good if we could discuss Bacon over a glass of wine somewhere cheap and cheerful then wouldn’t it Francesc. Have a good weekend 😊

        Oh yes! Splendid idea Malc. You too have a lovely weekend! And I will raise a glass this evening at 1900 hours (Eastern Standard Time), I think it will be midnight in the UK… 🍷😎👍

    I like bacon on my sandwich, but I am not sure I want him on my walls. Evocative images, but they all seemed muddled and confused. Not my favorite artist, however he was a great writer. Loved the music, Francisco!

      That is fine, but it is good to know even those you are not too fond of. For me, Bacon and Lucian Freud are two of the best, but I know that the majority has not really liked them. All the best Pat, and since today is the middle of the week, I am getting ready for wine time! Cheers!
