no it's not....repetition can bring someone in a trance-like mood, which can be quite exstatic, also it helps noticing the small details....ryan_w_0000 wrote:..its a load of ****, isnt it?

for example
try listening to Philip Glass' "Koyaaanisqatsi" or "the hours" 's soundtrack....
it's never boring, it's original but minimalistic.....
shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather....

Can't explain it, but I have always found Mondrian's de' stijl compostitions very attractive.

I'm a great fan of Mondriaan RS. Have you ever seen any of his works "in the flesh"? I can't remember where it was that I saw them but they had a Mondriaan exhibit including a chronological series of "Tree" paintings.
Pretty much like this sequence: clicky.
You really see the De Stijl paintings in a new light when you see their antecedents.
Is that still a tree?

Miro's a surrealist, surely, not a minimalist.
You're going to think I'm taking the pi$s, but I really like this:
White on White by Kasimir Malevich. Now there's minimalism.

@sexygoth I always thought that that Dali was a bit too much....
I much prefer his toreador hallucinogene
but still, Dali was a genious, but I don't think you can only measure that on how many details one puts in his/her paintings....
and I agree with markfiend about the malevitch...I like it too....

Anyway, my favourite painter ever:
Clicky 1001x699 pixels so I won't embed it.
Abstract Expressionist, if we're sticking with "schools" of painting.

Is that the fire at the warehouse? I'm not quite sure what to make of that. I'm quite upset that Tracey Emin's tent (I can't remember what it's called) has apparently gone; I've seen it and it's moving and disturbing at the same time. The same could be said about a lot of her work.
I like Damien Hirst's conceptual sculptures, but his abstract painting leave me a little cold. He doesn't seem to be saying anything with them.
As for Jake and Dinos Chapman, I'm sorry to say it but IMO their stuff is better off burnt.
