Yeah, really! What good is that piece without the goofy perv looking up her skirts?

I love Vladimir Kush's stuff. He's surrealist, kind of like Dali. Even went to his gallery in Laguna Beach a couple times.
I'm a big fan of the Renaissance period. Particularly the big four.
Leonardo is my least favorite, despite being the obvious leader
Michelangelo gets props for style and personality
Raphaels attitude can be a bit much unfortunately, but still quite cool
But my favorite, has always been Donatello

not long - just needed to push to the front to get your cell phone pics. Which I was a little surprised they let you do. Other paintings they did not. I think it normally resides at the d'Orsay though so I'm not sure if it'd be much higher priority if a visiting piece at the MoMA?
One of my earliest influences in the world of art is Mr. Strong Bad, I really appreciate his medieval stylings.

Look at all that majesty!
The whole video really shows off his "skills of an artist!"
I am an Impression guy all of the way. They had a yuge Impressionists exhibit here in Mpls decades ago with some of the best from all over the world. Was hooked. When I was on a tour in Paris I ducked out of the Louvre and dragged my sister, GF and dad over to the Musée d'Orsay to see the Impressionist paintings. Most times I am in Washington D.C. I make a pilgrimage over to the Phillips Collection to see Renoir's Luncheon of the Boating Party.

Thing about the Luncheon is you see pictures in books but you aren't prepared when it is approximately 4 foot x 6 foot in size.

I like several already mentioned, but I will add Degas to the list:
Apart from paintings, I always liked what Dale Chihuly did with blown glass. That stuff just amazes me.

I'm a huge fan of Salvador Dali, not just his famous works (The Persistence of Memory), but also some of the more offbeat stuff. The Temptation of St. Anthony, Visions of Eternity, Inventions of Monsters. This one is definitely one of my favorites.
Michelangelo may have put a little bit of time into this work.
My first love was Rembrandt. His use of light is captivating.
My next love was Monet. Such fantastic colors laced with emotion...
I can hear the wind when I look at this one.

That beefy arm looks a pretty good. Coming outta the back of his neck.

He's so intense and brilliant. I love Metamorphosis of Narcissus:
@VeloClone - what is amazing about Monet is that most of his major works were pointillism, millions of tiny little dots of paint composing a whole. It's insane in scale.
