Welcome to the Vegan Theory Club Weekly Megathread!
Question of the week:
Who is your favorite visual artist?
Feel free to talk about anything, whether it’s vegan-related or not. This is a chill space for connecting, sharing ideas, and supporting each other.
Looking forward to hearing what everyone’s up to!
I mentioned this a while ago, but my favourite artists are Frida Kahlo and Francisco de Goya.
Both extremely powerful. It is amazing to me in the time of cheap imagery where we are surrounded by media and art all the time on our phones and printed cheaply everywhere how impactful their images were in their time
Yeah, I feel the same way. My favourite period of art is Surrealism (with Goya generally considered to be either the first surrealist painter or the last traditional one, included him anyway tho). We studied his work during my first year of Art History including how the sort of “hierarchy” surrounding curated art has evolved over the centuries.
