if i lived in the 70s my answer would prob be pink floyd. but ive never even seen them once
id def have to go with Bassnectar. seen him 30+ times now, traveled the country with my best friends and met so many people along the way and had times that ill never forget or regret
and the dude is just so real. one of his fav quotes at shows he says is "think for yourself and question everything" and its such a great message. i feel like if youve done enough psychs, this is a message thats just implied. it doesnt have to be spoken, its just a concept youd totally understand without ever vocalizing it
oh, and he fuckin destroys
i doubt ill ever feel stronger about a musical act at any point in my life ever than the way i do about Bassnectar now

I think it's kinda sad and says something about society today that almost everyone else in this thread seemed to automatically assume "musician" when they read this post. I mean music is beautiful and has had an amazing impact on my life over the years, but is that all we think of when we here the word "artist" anymore?

a painter is what comes to mind first for me. or a poet. I kinda agree with you man. our society doesn't attribute much importance in intellectual stuff in general. part of it has to do with the fucked up educational system.

that's true, but i'd say it;s just probably cuz music has had a major impact on more people than most other arts

7:00 minutes in and you can see what amounts to art on film. his actual teaching and philosophy i think can probably amount to a similar connotation.
my favorite artist of all time. out of all the artists? LOL
right now it's Henry Chopin because i was just introduced to him a couple days ago so it's fresh on my mind
but usually it goes something more like this: favorite poet is EE Cummings. favorite painter is either Joan Miró or Wassily Kandinsky, do want one of their books. favorite novelist at the moment is David Foster Wallace but Herman Melville is still my overall favorite as of yet. favorite architect is an easy choice, it's Frank Llyod Wright. favorite photographer well...i can't say Deguerre or Ansel Adams because they're just easy picks...so i'd go with Francesco Gola. favorite director, is it too easy to say Stanley Kubrick or Akira Kurosawa? then i pick Alain Resnais. favorite actor? well duh... Daniel Day...Daniel Day Lewis. favorite musician...Chopin.
LOL
what a list.Quote:

paintings blow my mind sometimes, in fact much more than music could do.
also bassnectar is pretty weak stuff imo compared to , aphex twin , flying lotus, squarepusher etc... or compared to stravinsky, shostakovitch, real composers.....it pales in comparison...

Bethesda studios 
Pink Floyd though for real. I've got animals on right now.
In response to chrisman, I think comparing different forms of art is apples and oranges. All you can do is decide what form of art most speaks to you. Music is probably one of the more enthralling ones, but I've definitely seen some amazing painting and photography.

I think street art is probably the most beautiful and true art there is. Banksy and tons of other street artist are really fuckin awesome at it .but my favorite is the old school street bombing.my favorites is probably Monk.e and Castro ,Castro got major balls always had a ton of respect and Monk.e is straight up paint genius.
nowaday music is almost only entertainment, ghost writers and mise en scene adn waht not only for the money and fame, rare are those true artist.
Random shroomy street art  Castro
 Monk.e 1

I'd say Big Daddy Roth, Will Eisner, Pablo Picasso, Mark Kistler, Robert Crumb, Salvador Dali, Max Ernst, Al Capp, Allen Moore, Neil Gaimen, Phillip Kindred Dick, H.P. Lovecraft, and H.R. Geiger.

Tough choice. As for old school, pink floyd or tupac. But I'll say currently MGMT is the best band I know that I can really listen to their music and connect emotionally. They make very powerful music in a day and age where that is quite rare.

LOL no one is going to take you seriously. Squarepusher is about 200x better than Bassnectar. Squarepusher actually creates art. Bassnectar makes beats. annoying one's at that.
Aphex Twin...originator of techniques used in all modern electronic/dance music, who cares?

"Think for yourself & question everything."
^^^Bassnectar announces this to the crowd at most shows? Is he and the audience 13 years old?
The irony is that he's telling the audience to do something, while thinking for themselves. Do you question this message, bassfreak? If not, you haven't properly received it.
Is he saying this to the crowd as satire? That's really the only way it makes sense.

Damn... it's real close. Either Jimi Hendrix or Kurt Cobain.
edit: By artist I thought you meant music artist. Sorry. I do not have a favorite artist (as in painter). Kurt Cobain did paint & draw a lot though. He was good too & very creative.

That stuff is dope, never heard of her before. Reminds me of Roy Lichtenstein, but I don't pretend to know much about pop art at all. You a fan of his at all?
I really don't think I could pick a single favorite artist, but I will say that at this point in my life, my favorite artist is Townes Van Zandt. Such a fucking great songwriter, his music's been helping me get through some tough times.
Nothing against any other form of art, but I feel like no matter what, my favorite artist will always be a musician. Music always resonates with me more than any other medium, for whatever reason. It's probably the most important thing in my life.

of course Lichtenstein is nice too with his mock-comic magazine look.
i like Mel Ramos better personally.

If I had to pick a favorite, it would probably be Dave Tipper. He's an inspiration for me as a producer.
However, Shigeru Miyamoto was more influential because of how impressionable I was when playing his games.

Excellent choices. I particularly like Poe, Dali and Kubrick. I know nothing of Turrell. The Doors can fuck off. They mostly bore me. Like the Beatles. They are meh. Not even close to my favorite.

everyone's "favorite artist's" are the practically the same. you can just post what you want and name the goddamn person you're attributing to what you're posting.
but ok, sure...Jimi Hendrix is my favorite artist.

I think the general consensus here is
> all
but yeah, if you stated your favorite, you might as well contribute with good art.
it's interesting to note that, nobody mentioned sculptors ....
I think that sculpture is even more underappreciated than painting.

Bob Dylan and Keith Richards are the most important to me. Writers only have a couple decades before they go in and out of vogue. I really enjoyed my last trip to the Art Institute, but painting is archaic, period.
I always thought film was going to be the new art form. I thought Scorcese was the best for a long time. And there were a lot of other good film makers. There were great movies in the 70's. But right now cable series, Movie stations or regular cable is as good as anything that the arts have to offer.

I agree T.V. is politely handing film its ass. Case in Point: Wonder Showzen is as potent as any film I have seen. I don't think there can be a best film maker. One time I was talking with a CBS producer and said how film is in its infancy, we still haven't seen a Da Vinci yet. Then he went on to say how we do have a Da Vinci and it was Steven Spielberg. I was thinking GTFO.

I don't think he is quite overrated. When I think of overrated I think of Tarantino. However Spielberg suffers from the "for the whole family" syndrome which make him kind of lame imo.

yeah him, but Tarantino is however overrated. i agree. i like his first film for it's simplicity and it's structure. i love Pulp Fiction, and is at his best and a original film by all means. his efforts have been so drenched in gooiness that tis just little bit beyond my depth by now.

no they are technically and innovatively compelling but certainly not underrated. they have a lot of hype around everything they do and they certainly can start to feel pretty stock for awhile. that's the definition of overrated in the film industry for me.
if it's always fresh, then this sort of "stock-feel" ceases to exist.

that's just the way their art is, there may be similar aspects in all their films, but their work is still pretty original and fresh
it's not even that they are overrated, it's just that the fans loved their movies so much they eventually over did it and got tired of them eventually, that;s not necessary the fault of the artist.

no, it isn't, but another reason it's overrated and that that is bad for the artist's reputation, is because, simply put, it detract's from publicity for other respectable artist's (which it's fine by the way to want publicity but i'll get to my point in a second), but it sets expectation's so high, like you said, that the films get less and less production effort, and we get given glossy myopic scripts and scenes and it's a style sure but is it any growth as 'an artist'? sure film can just be for fun... but this expectation's takes away from the lore of a good plot, the look of a great film, and while techniques are shared all the time, the redundancy of the making of the same kinda films all the time, it starts to rely too heavily on a formula. it's fine, i never said they were "bad director's".

i thought it was about his adventures through the majestic mountains of Switzerland n all that good stuff..
and also his experiences in in the war, love life, those books was pretty much about his life mixed with folklore to entertain the audiences..

I got Cowboy Bebop in the mail today, it was a newly released blu-ray I got on amazon for 30bucks
It's one of my favorite series, I really didn't want to watch it again though.
Watching it for the first time colloquially it represents to me a lot of world music mixed with mid western culture.
it draws you in as so to speak
I used to watch it and think I was watching the Soprano's for Cartoon Network Some of the music is either fusion, harlem bebop or harlem ragtime i can't remember
one of those
