Ciphers Constellations - Joan Miro


Painted by Joan Miro this painting titled "Ciphers Constellations" is obviously very surreal style.
André Breton, would describe Miró as "the most surrealist of us all"), Miró expressed his contempt for painting (at least as conventionally thought of) and his desire to "murder" and "assassinate" it in favor of new means of expression, in numerous writings and interviews from the 1930s on.

My Thoughts, i like this painting particually because of the arrangement of the images when i look at it there looks to be a white tiger hidden within the image with the beaded line acting as a facial outline and the oval black and white slit as a mouth and black paint strokes as whiskers. Also its very spaced out so it looks that more eye catching.

IMPACT!!! THY NAME IS ART

This is painted by Wassily Kandinsky personally i think this is his best piece of artwork due to the fact of the complexity of it. It's very bold and colourful as well as having a lot going on, to me when i look at it, it looks like a massive explosion with lots of shrapnel being scattered everywhere. The title of the piece of artwork is Compasition VII (7 for those of you whom do not know roman numarals) and was painted in 1913.
