Dale Chihuly uses blown glass to make beautiful and psychedelic looking sculpture installations. I caught a documentary about him on PBS that is absolutely fascinating.    big fan of Chihuly, but interesting that he has come up several times in this thread, but not his (arguably) best known work in the United States: that HUGE installation (each individually hand blown) in the lobby of the Bellagio in Vegas:  |

and one who hasn't been mentioned here, tho her style is very similar to some art that has been shown: Echo Chernikshe does some absolutely gorgeous art-nouveau pieces:   and tho they can get pricey, I actually do own this set she did for an Opera Company (they are framed along one of the long hallways in our home).  |

I've always really liked Pablo Picasso and I find the Cubist movement fascinating. I had Guernica as the desktop background on my PC for years. One of my all-time favorite paintings and I'd love to see it at a museum in person one day. There's an interesting article on its significance here that even shows a photo of him working on it.  1937

Charles Dana Gibson (arguably the great great grandfather of most "comics-inking/rendering"  Enric, famous for Warren Magazine posters, book covers, film posters; the way he handles glass here is amazing:  |
