Fun fact: Goya painted Saturn, among other dark and violent paintings, onto the walls of his house during the final years of his life. The painting might not even be of Saturn eating his son - that was just the most popular interpretation of the piece.
@@antonioalexander1 No problem! I'd recommend Blind Dweller's video on the Black Paintings to find out more about them. ua-cam.com/video/kY1Rua7jy48/v-deo.html
The black paintings really are wild. I had the awesome opportunity to see them in person and learned about how they were painted on the walls, then very carefully cut out by others who thought they should be preserved. I didn't even find _Saturn_ to be the most disturbing, but I can see why it gets the most attention bc of the shock of it.
The Goya exhibit in Madrid is truly fascinating as it is scary. Its arranged chronologically that you can see Goya’s tortured mind spiraling into madness from his aging, hearing loss, and the horrors he witnessed in his life. Of all the art exhibits out there, that one takes the cake for being one of the most viscerally bleak.
You missed one. It's called "Man proposes, God disposes." It shows the likely aftermath of the Franklin Expedition. It hangs in a school and is supposedly cursed. Anyone who sits under it during an exam will fail. So they cover it.
Yuko Tatsushim's painting is called "I cannot be a bride anymore" not "I am not your bride", beacause it's about SA and the shame that it brings to the victims in Japanese culture.
4.48 psychosis is one of the most heartbreaking things to read, especially the part where she tries to refer to her therapist as a friend. I read it months ago and I still can't forget it
I once received a disciplinary reprimand for a piece written for my college class because I argued that Abramović should not have survived this performance. The gain in knowledge was zero, that a work of art is carried out into the world, exposed to judgment, to the "evil" audience, ergo, in this example, herself, is not nearly enough to justify the controversial reputation of the performance. Perhaps I am simply too strongly influenced by my involvement with Hermann Nitsch, Otto Mühl, Schwarzkogler was also mentioned in the video, but her work in the field of metaphysics, the theory of interpretation and performance art remains far behind the protagonists of Viennese Actionism or even many contemporary action artists.
@@checkyeshereI don't think the gain in knowledge was necessarily zero; I mean sure it's likely not something you'll see in any textbooks-that is to say that it isn't DIRECTLY beneficial for the information it provides, but I'm sure there could be some interesting psychological/sociological dissections of what happened during the piece, i.e. factions, the defensive faction only spawning in response to aggression against Abramović, how far Abramović was willing to go for the piece (though I guess that would be more fit for a case study), everyone running away after realizing there was a chance of confrontation etc etc-but hey that's just my take; im interested in the Viennese Actionism mentioned though. Do you have any good starting places to look into the movement, or is it simply as easy as just googling "Viennese Actionism"?
Hey Antonio, Kiyotaka Tsurisaki isn't just a photographer, but he's also a film director too, being behind shockumentaries like "Orozco the Embalmer", "Junk Films", and the "Rare: A Dead Person" film series
I actually really love _The Hands Resist Him,_ even outside of the whole "haunted ebay painting" mythos. IDK, something about it just speaks to me, with the bright summery lighting and the feeling of an alienated lonely childhood, with some kind of darkness lurking underneath. The artist also did sequels that create a more complete story!
this was such an interesting video and each analysis was well researched and put together. I wish for Judith beheading Holofernes, you could have also mentioned Artemisia Gentileschi's adaptation of Caravaggio's piece. Gentileschi's scene, in my opinion is much more gruesome and chaotic.
Wish you talked a bit more about I can not be a bride anyore by yuko tatsushima. Granted, information is probably harder to find because most sources are in japanese, but apparently its about a bride who was s/ad (hence the tears near her private areas) and is also a self portrait.
As a Serbian, their is a very nice painting called Kosovo Maiden, which depicts a part of an epic poem about the 1389 Battle Of Kosovo, where a woman is nursing her fiance who was wounded in the battlefield with water and wine. It is a nice painting, and not disturbing.
There is a name error in the keynotes, it says Kiyotaka Suryazaki, in the video itself the name is correctly Kiyotaka Tsurisaki. Oh and I found another small misspelling, because I'm German, at 20:50 it's "Der Krieg" not Kreig.
A painting that I kind of wished would be included in this iceberg is “Untitled” by Shima Seien, a Japanese nihonga artist who had a brief but evocative career during the Taishō and Shōwa eras of Japan. In it, we see her sitting in front of an unfinished painting with a discolored bruise on her right eye. According to Seien, the bruise symbolizes the violence inflicted on women by men during her lifetime, as well as her frustrations of how discriminatory her society was against women who pursued jobs outside of domestic contexts. Seien is known to have battled said discrimination in her field, and eventually ended her career when she got married in 1921. Regardless, the few paintings she left behind are thought-provoking.
The one that always got me was "Faim, Folie, et Crime" ("Hunger, Madness, and Crime") my Antoine Wiertz. Even though it probably belongs on the top level, if anywhere.
Your videos are always on point! Thanks for sharing all of these beautiful and interesting pieces of art with us! Everything you do and say is on point! ❤️

Markus Copper has many more disturbing works. Like “bourgeois door” motoric guillotine, “juggernaut” 5000kg metal ball that had a heatdetector that would recognise a person and start rolling towards them, “archangel of seven seas” the big wooden whale his most famous work. If you wonder why his name is copper it’s because he burned his legs during a performance, they turned colour to copper, that’s when he changed his last name (30% of his body burned). The day he graduated from art school he at the party shouted to his friends passing by “I am not leaving here alive” he thanked them vanished in the gallery space where he cut of his left arm with a circular saw and dragged himself in to a wooden coffin he had built for himself ( he survived).He truly was an amazing artist.❤
I saw one a little while ago that was four panels: a woman sweeping in her home, a pointy black entity outside the door, and the entity coming in, entering her body and stretching her body out into points while she is clearly in pain, and it was supposed to symbolize SA. I can't remember the name now but it was called something like "The Unexpected Guest" or something, if anyone has seen it and knows what I'm talking about please help Edit I found it! It's actually eight panels and it's called "The Morning Visitor" by Dino Buzzati
netherlandish lol. I like these videos and will continue to watch them but it seems like they all generally need to be discussed further. I know that would take a lot longer, but I think that separates these very, "run of the mill" videos into well written discussions of media
Hey, if you want to further explore a particular artwork, I'm sure you can find other videos that are more in-depth for that one piece. The Garden of Earthly Delights could easily fill an hour. But personally, I don't need to see anything more about the ball of mucus.
At the Rhythm 0 performance I think it would be legendary if someone would put the gun in Marina's hand, aim the gun on himself and using her hands pull the trigger and thereby make HER kill someone at this performance. I think such a turn in performance is worth dying once
Little piece of not super fun info: both of the Theodore Gericault works in the iceberg were done as studies for his influential Romantic painting “The Raft of the Medusa”. He did these studies and others to ensure he depicted the tragedy as accurately as he could!
Really interesting artworks. I also recommend looking into the works of the Viennese Actionists, especially Günter Brus. Also the performances of Chris Burden, John Duncan and Brian Lewis Sauders (Under the influence of torture). All very disturbing and shocking, but very interesting.
25:04 Constantine never claimed to see a cross in the sky. The symbol he allegedly saw was the Chi Rho sign, an early Christian symbol of the faith made of combing the Greek letters Chi and Rho which are the first two letters in the Greek title “Christos”. He ordered his men to paint it on their shields and pray to whichever god gave him the sign which they did and then won a decisive defeat that cemented his legitimacy as sole emperor of Rome, which is what motivated him to convert and to make Christianity the de factor, and later de jure religion of the empire itself
Wait, did i hear that right.. Markus art? Do you mean Markus Copper? He made the six pack of death and is also known for building mechanical and disturbing sculptures like the juggernaut and kursk. He is also alleged to have cut his own hand off. He was an interesting yet somewhat mysterious guy. He changed his last name to Copper after his legs got severely burned after a performance gone bad.
War (Der Krieg) by Otto Dix is the name of the Triptych shown, but I think they might be referring to his black&white print collection of the same name. Also, I think Artemisia Gentileschi's painting of Judith is the definitive, but that might just be my opinion. To add, I have always found Ivan Albright's paintings uniquely disturbing. Usually just portraits, not gory or anything, but so creepy/uncanny. Roberto Ferri and Dino Valls deserve mention as well And descending to the ninth-circle, "body link" by a couple of Chinese artists needs to be mentioned, but don't search if squeamish (dead babies)
6:10 This, is the only sole painting I fear. This is not the fear of the unknown, but rather the fear of the discovered. I feel as though eventually, it will break through the canvas to the real world and stretch all symbolic art until there is no meaning. ''I feel as though if I stare at his paintings for long enough, my face will begin to bend into buckle. My bones crack till it is a mirror of what I was staring at.'' - Joshua Bushman
The first and last one are strange and questionable to me, but at least I can see a deeper political meaning in their works. They seem like actual performance artists. The others just seem like weirdos enacting their kinks before an audience
Marina in the early days, she was just wrong in the head. I really believe she was just trying to die and was using performance art as an excuse to push her body and mind to the limits. It's a miracle at the least she's still alive.
Two other Polish art pieces: "Neros Torches" by Henryk Siemiradzki depicts the brutality of religious persecution in ancient Rome - it depicts emperor Nero watching the execution of Christians by putting them on fire. The opulence of the emperor contrasts with the brutality of the act. Almost anything by Jerzy Duda Gracz is known for exaggerated, grotesque human forms.
Surprised there's nothing by Edward Keinholtz here, he had some pretty dark stuff. Rythym 0... _Jesus Christ_ ! It's scary the kind of things people will do if they are given free reign.
I don’t think “ecce homo” refers to that specific painting entirely, but rather the genre of “ecce homo” which is a commonly repeated subject that artists have depicted for over 2000 years and still do to this day. Put simply, it is the depiction of Christs suffering before, during, or after his crucifixion at Golgotha. It is possibly the single most commonly depicted event in art history with literally thousands of artists from almost every country and every era depicting it at some point or another. Depictions range from medieval flat art to fine, complex baroque pieces, to stripped down modernist ones, and even strange, transgressive and subversive post modern works (good example of this is the infamous photo “piss Christ” which features a generic mass produced plastic rosary crucifixion in cases in an amber vial of the artists urine). The Ecce homo, despite its hyper specific religious subject matter, has been done so often and in so many ways that it has almost become a medium in and of itself. There are film versions, music/albums, literature and poetry and even performance art pieces of the ecce homo with just as much variety as the traditional visual art depictions. Edit: oh wow, piss Christ is in the video! lol, should’ve waited before commenting
Hahahha that callout for serbians at the end got me we do have some disturbing stories ngl. Try movies "Tesna koza" and "Lajanje na zvezde" theyre very lighthearted old comedy movies based off of books of the same names. Also if you want to know more about our culture "Ivkova slava" and "Zona Zamfirova" are a very good start.
If anyone wants to listen to another, more informed UA-camr talk about art definitly check out The Canvas ua-cam.com/users/TheCanvasArtHistory , its honestly unbelievable how underrated that channel is. Also yeah I know in English it's Dutch, I just translated from German to English in my head, so lesson learned!

A year later but Sarah Kane was such a genius and it sucks her art was so linked to her pain :/
I once got to read that book where Sarah used to live. It was an interesting experience.
The fact everyone ran away at the end of Rhythm 0 is really scary.

I find it so interesting that both Cut and Rhythm 0 essentially had the same result.
its scary because there are many books written on these experiments. these were experimental arts anyways

Ok so the artist you are looking for at 18:20 is Joel-Peter Witkin. hope this helped! also keep up the amazing work!
I really like Judith saying Holofernes as a story and an art piece. There is a version painted by Artemisia Gentilescy that is far more visceral too.
That Nightmare one always creeps me out. Imagine coming across that in an old house.
I absolutely LOVE your iceberg videos! Keep working hard man!
Btw a part 2 would really be cool, glad Bosch and Moreau were brought up! They’re some of my favorite artists
The Rhythm0 piece, I can imagine everyone running away, but with the scooby running sound effect lol.
There is a name error in the keynotes, it says Kiyotaka Suryazaki, in the video itself the name is correctly Kiyotaka Tsurisaki.

finally another disturbing iceberg, you could make one about videogames or music next
Omg yes a video game one would be awesome
Beksinski and Dix were amazing artists. IMO they made some of the most interesting art of the 20th century.
I love gory and macabre artwork, and I like iceberg videos, so it’s inevitable that I would also like this video!
i had a feeling someone was going to come at you for saying the title of a painting ☠️

It’s not ‘Netherlandish’ it’s Dutch but no lie “Saturn Devouring His Children” NEVER fails to freak me out
Tbh a lot of the modern performance arts are pretty lame. A lot of it in general is for shock value and it stops there

Guernica was the first painting that had an effect on me, and the first art piece that made me understand what art could do.
Excellent video, truly interesting pics and discoveries, alot of Google tabs are open right now for further research.
I laughed at the Nollywood entry. I grew up watching so many of those movies with my parents whenever they brought them back from Africa lol
