YVES KLEIN (http://www.yveskleinarchives.org/)

He has painted with living brushes (live models covered with paint)

I like him because: he reminds me material is not important. You can choose oil or acrylic, canvas or paper, brush or body but without ideas material doesn’t make ART.

GEORGE BASELITZ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georg_Baselitz)

He exhibits his works upside-down

I like him because: he reminds me of the relationship between figurative and abstract painting. I always turn my work while I’m painting so I don’t become a slave of the subject. The important thing is expression.

KEITH HARRING (http://www.haring.com/)

He draws in the simplest  way in the world.

I like him because: he reminds me there is not any artistic STYLE more important than others. Figurative, abstract, naïve, decorative, minimal…

PABLO PICASSO (http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pablo_Picasso)

You know who I am talking about.

I like him because: he always changed his style. He didn’t become a slave of commercialism even though he was a famous BRAND.

I appreciate too many artists. I will write more later.
