Africa has a very interesting mosaic of cultures. Their weapons are easily the most interestingly-shaped there are and every tiny tribe has their own culture and mythos

Our culture is essentially identical to Irish but with more poetry, bardic tradition and choirs and less independence.

Some dances
>Deer's dance. Done by the Northern Natives (The States of Sonora and Sinaloa) in order to pay respect to the deer they hunted. It tells the story of a deer being hunted by humans, the drum symbolized the heartbeat; rushing in tension and stoping at death
youtube.com
>Elder's Dance. Done by four young people dressed up as elders, it pays respect to the elders and asks for good harvests. Is from the Purepécha people in the State of Michoacán

I also remember there being a dance where a man and a woman would dance around a piece of cloth, then kick it around while dancing, then lifting it to reveal that they had make a ribbon while dancing
Blake Morgan
Bernini is great, but he never came close to topping this.

Most kids would associate our culture with mining and shieeet because they aren't taught in school about our culture beyond how the English oppressed us by giving us a mining industry.

Hey, no joke, that statue (The rape of Persephone, right?) and most his other works are fucking incredible. The skin-dentation in a statue?! There's another one by him that has a veil around a woman's entire body; molded out of marble is the veil's every creaseI never knew the human hand could make something so beautiful.
Leo Williams
From the same hotel
Those are souvenirs from my state, the real ones do not have any words in them. You will find flowers, but because of their axial symmetry.
But even if the content is different you still see manny houses with tiles making geometric shapes on their walls as a form of decoration, just like in manny Arab countries

You and me both.
this is John Singer Sargent for anyone that cares.
John Rogers
Typical Mexican art isn't "bad", nut it's not quite my thing. I think its because a lot of it is really good at depicting realism and the common person, and is also more minimalistic. Whereas the more conventional stuff )like victorian paintings or Romanesque/Italiano sculpturing, is about idealism and perfection by a human hand. But nice posts!

You guys need to go out and see this shit in person. Its a completely different experience than viewing from a screen.
If you have the opportunity go to the National Gallery of Arts in the United States.

The modern history of the statue
Discovered in Rome near the Baths of Diocletian in 1608, this statue was one of the most admired masterpieces of the Borghese Collection in the 17th and 18th centuries. In 1619, Cardinal Scipione Borghese commissioned the Baroque Italian sculptor Bernini to carve the mattress on which the ancient marble now lies. In the same year, David Larique worked on the restoration of the figure of Hermaphroditos. The work came to the Louvre after it had been bought, together with the rest of the Borghese Collection, by Napoleon I from his brother-in-law, Prince Camillo Borghese. Although the figure of Hermaphroditos in the Louvre is the best known, three other versions of the ancient statue have sometimes been compared with it: that of Velletri (also in the Louvre), that in the Uffizi in Florence, and a third version in the Villa Borghese in Rome.
The story of Hermaphroditos
There is nothing improper in this work, but it still intrigues the viewer. Hermaphroditos, son of Hermes and Aphrodite, had rejected the advances of the nymph Salmacis. Unable to resign herself to this rejection, Salmacis persuaded Zeus to merge their two bodies forever, hence the strange union producing one bisexed being with male sexual organs and the voluptuous curves of a woman. Stretched out in erotic abandon on the mattress provided by Gian Lorenzo Bernini 1598-1680, the figure sleeps. Yet Hermaphroditos has only fallen half asleep: the twisting pose of the body and the tension apparent down to the slightly raised left foot are indicative of a dream state.

Here's a little art timeline for us
>Native cultures make sculptures that loom interesting for us. They also had an emperor who liked to do poetry
>Spaniards came and all art is put to a halt
>Colonial times. Expect European arts made in nahuatl and other native tongues. You have architecture, songs ( youtube.com
>Independence, art gets a bit boring, wait until Porfirio
>Lord Porfirio comes and so does modernism. Art is now about how fucking amazing technology is. Expect paintings of trains peacefully coexisting with nature and the country's aesthetics getting a bit more French and Prussian
>Revolution starts. No time for art
>Post-Revolution. People realize that life is shit and nihilism develops again. Some Kick-ass literature from the time is developed, but a great part of is is more truth than fiction.
>Post WWII. People start to think that we can become 1st world. Imagine the beginnings of post modernism mixed with the awful reality. Vanguards set foot in the country, the "Literary Boom" happens and we get even more excellent writers, alongside the rest of LatinAmerica

Definitely good taste.
His later works feature a lot of watercolor.
I find them to be a lot more interesting and expressive than some of his other work.

Watercolor is a difficult medium because of the strain that it causes the paper but if anyone could do it well it would have been him. That one has a distantly impressionistic feel.

Arab architecture doesn't exist. It was all based on Persian, Greek, Roman, and Visigothic designs. What is seen in Al-Andalusia is a result of a mixing Persian and Greek designs (the basis for the most famous building in Islam, the Dome of the Rock) with Visigothic styles.

Don't you realize how meaningless that is?
Very few cultures can be said to have been built in isolation.
>"Latin Architecture doesn't exist. Its all just a mix of Greek, Anatolian and Etruscan designs."
Art History really should be a High School curriculum class. I think its more valuable than actual art "Classes."
Im sure some of us here had the privilege of learning about these artists in Uni but for the most part if you take an interest in art and art communities these names pop up a lot.
You'll find what art styles you like and dislike.

Although, the islamic rejection of idols must have resulted in the popularization of geometric designs in buildings. They may have not created it, but sure brought it to Spain.
Both roman and greek architecture use a lot of geometry, but in a bigger scale. While the Persians use it for smaller details

It's an important distinction because of Islam's and therefore Arab culture ability to absorb and claim for itself achievements that are not truly Islamic or Arabic.
They did bring Persia architecture to Spain, that I will agree on.
