New art thread for 2024 starts here! This is a mostly daily thread with a different artist featured in each post, primarily modern and contemporary stuff since that's my thing.
Homeware designs by pioneering British ceramicist Clarice Cliff, 1920s-30s, whose artistic, whimsical approach to commercial pottery revolutionized the industry and influenced generations of designers after her.
Mixed media works by Belgian artist Léon Spilliaert, 1900s-10s, whose symbolist compositions typically combined ink, watercolor, crayon, and gouache, with muted color schemes and solitary figures and oppressive settings.
