Great list, and that piece you posted is one of my favs.
Are you crushed buy the news that White Stripes is no more? I love Seven Nation Army. It’s brilliance.
I know! I can’t believe it. Makes me sad. But I’m lucky to say that I’ve seen them live several times and they were amazing and inspiring! Saw them twice in one day on their last tour.
love the paintings by my husband’s aunt Gillian Saward – part of the collection at UWO.
Good list, I also love the White Stripes!
I always love your lists. I just spent the last 1/2 hour going through the links and discovering so many new (to me) artists in the process… and of course, discovering some amazing work of art. It’s a huge personal goal- to learn more about modern (and traditional artists), so this topic was especially fun.
I really like than Van Gogh.
I remember standing in front of this painting years ago and having my mom just look at her watch wondering when we could leave the museum…. she could care less.
Yep, so I’ve had to make an effort on my own to actually admire art.
Honestly I had not heard of may of the names on your list, so thank you, I am going to check them out.
BTW… did you know White Stripes will no longer perform! ??
There are so many great artists listed here in the comments. Can’t wait to check them all out!
Lorena – I know, I heard! I can’t believe it! I’ll really miss them. I hope to hear more from them in the future, perhaps in a different form.
