Hi there, dear readers and subscribers. Today we take on contemporary landscape painting, presenting the top 12 results from our online article 'Contemporary Landscape Painting: A Complete Survey'. First and foremost, I wish to anticipate some negative comments who would rightly quote the lack of diversity in this list. We are simply presenting the top results from our survey, and as often, the top tiers of the art world still lack diversity. However, we strongly believe and notice things are shifting for the better. Feel free to read the entire article online, discover a broader selection of artists (link in description). To conclude, we would like to know what you think about landscape painting as a genre in a contemporary context? And who did we miss out in our list/article? Chat soon!
Good review about contemporary landscape painting 👍.
@@jmartist Thank you for tuning in and your kind words!
@@contemporaryartissue fantastic overview! could you do a compilation of contemporary african painters in future?:-) thank you for your great work with your channel. long time subscriber here
@@Kaspar_Houser Dear Kasper, thank you for your kind words aan loyalty! In fact, we will publish a video of African painters later this month!
@@contemporaryartissue wonderful!!
This is awesome because I haven't really looked into contemporary landscape artists, but I know I love Erin Hanson's art. Looking forward to discovering more and will definitely read the article.
Hi there Mandy, thank you for tuning in. Yes, contemporary landscape painting is worth looking into for sure! Erin Hanson's art is terrific for sure, the color, the contrast, ... Great stuff
I'd be interested in how others feel regarding peter Doig in this. I'd say Doig is a narrative painter who uses elements of landscape to tell his stories. Not sure I'd ever call him a landscape painter.
Thank you for this: a few pieces I'd never seen before & liked.
Hi Jenny, that's great to hear! Thank you for tuning in
Another great video. Thank you!
Thank you once more for tuning in and for your appreciative words, the pleasure is all mine!
I really appreciate your very interesting work on contemporary landscape artists 🙏 and I was happy to discover Francis Alÿs - his work seems so intensely felt.
And by the way from your definition of Contemporary Landscape artists I would definitely add the Danish painter Oluf Høst ( landscapes from Bornholm) and the Danish Turkish painter Bodil Ors ( Turkish landscape inspiration) 💚🎨
Dear Lis Engel, thank you so much for tuning and for your kind words. Francis Alÿs is an absolute gem. One of the greatest living artists in the world according to my humble opinion. Thank you for introducing me two new names, thrilled to discover their works.
What a wonderful channel thank you so much
Thank you for watching and for your kind words!
Thiebaud was much respected and beloved by us here. The SF/Bay Area artist community regard him in similar way as Diebencorn. His oeuvre is seen as pop influenced. Due to strong colors and oft iconic subjects such a bubble gum machines, dessert case repetition of cakes. The NY 60’s critics placed that on him. He saw himself as more then that. We here see him as Bay Area Figurative though his style taken by a hyped color work, that is much the atmospheric effect here. Due to our proximity to the bay and the Pacific oceans fog/sun mystical effect producing wild pastel colors! A fanatical fascination with contour and loose but well put color allowed him to enter a unique space between graphic and painterly. He taught for years at UC Davis not far from us (Benicia). He was not directly allied with the original SF/Bay Area Abstract movement; Diebencorn, Park, Bishchoff, Weeks, etc. (first generation) Bruce MaGaw, Manual Nuri, Joan Brown, etc. (second generation). I studied under Bruce MaGaw at SFAI. To my point his connection is to that groups “idea” of unrecognizable (abstract) flatness lilting into recognizable (realistic) form.
Hi Daniel, absolutely. Thank you for this great take on Wayne Thiebaud. I haven't seen his work in the flesh yet but I am definitely looking for the right opportunity to cross my path. Hopefully rather sooner than later! Have a great day!
Oh wow, now I learn about new contemporary landscape artists. Thanks for sharing. 👍
The pleasure is ours, thank you for tuning in!
Thank you.
The pleasure is all mine!
Beautiful selection of some of my favorite landscape artists.....Per Kirkeby and Joan Eardley are absolute favorites. I am so inspired by both their works and was heartbroken with Per passed away 4 yrs ago. What a great loss to the art world. TY for sharing this xx
The pleasure is all mine Robina, thank you so much for tuning in
very inspiring channel - thanks
Thank you so much for those most kind words!
Great advice
🙌
Thank you for an interesting and informative video. Cape Town
Thank you so much for tuning in and for your appreciative words.
Excellent video, thanks. (apart from the phrase "trascending the banality of reality" that I think is not very fortunate as one can also say "trascending the banality of abstraction" or "trascending the banality of conceptualism" or "trascending the banality of minimalism" according to the case, categorizing something as banal in the end is banal) (and don't worry about the comments about the gender of the artists or their place of birth, the video is about art, and most of the artists in the video are old artists which means their whole life work speak for them).
RIP Matthew Wong
So talented!
As usual very inspiring! Thank you! Spasibo. (in Russian . from Israel )😊
Thank you very much, most appreciated!
I'm a Russian Jew too, but live in Canada for 19 years. Привет из Оттавы! 😊🇨🇦💙✡️
Wowww❤️...im inspired with this
That's great! Thank you for tuning in
Same here! Enjoy your art hobby, it's so wonderful ❤🎨 🖼
Great!!! young up and coming abstract painters please!!!!
We got you on this one! Next week we're on it :-)
awesome love your vids .
Well, at least you had one woman painter. I will read the entire article. I love contemporary landscape, so more please, doesn't have to be top important artist, maybe just interesting and good.
Hi there, thank you for tuning in. We published a video yesterday of a visual anthology of a more extensive selection of less established but top notch artists. Feel free to have a look!
@@contemporaryartissue that’s not a good enough answer. Why is it that when women artist’s are talked about they come under such headings as ‘top 10 female artist’s’ or ‘female artist’s to look out for’. Have you ever seen someone say ‘top ten male artists’? Of course not. It makes me feel disillusioned with the art world and all you male gatekeepers.
Landscape is a great inspiration nomatter what style or medium - 🎶💚🎵
Exactly! Agree 100%
Yes. Nature, landscape, trees, clouds, rivers -- they also feel. They are like us humans.
The narrator of this video displays a good example of what in the art world is called Art speak: Artspeak (often derogatory) The specialist vocabulary and language associated with art and artists, especially when seen as complicated or pretentious. An Artist's Art is meant to speak/communicate to the audience or viewer through the artist's art not interpreted or explained by a critic or presenter. By all means, share your feelings, and thoughts, good or bad Etc...when talking to friends other collectors, and associates. But when speaking to Art brokers, dealers, Gallerists, Advisors, Etc... Beware, this is one reason there is such elitist manipulation in the ART market today. If you are a collector like me listen to your heart, after all, if it's your money and it's going to hang on your wall and be a True reflection of you and your taste, not someone else, Beware !
you missed out Richard Diebenkorn.
One of the images for Thiebaud looks like it's Diebenkorn's work.
Very interesting. Thank you.
Are there no female contemporary landscape artists worthy of mention?
I think artists such as Mark Bradford, Shara Hughes, Mamma Anderson (like another commenter mentioned), Jonas Wood and Hurvin Anderson should have been included. I would enjoy seeing another list on this topic. Thanks!
Hi Landria, thank you for tuning in and for your great recital of top notch artists occupied with landscape painting. In fact, we have a more extensive selection of artists as well, whom we'll present in a visual anthology which should be published today. Many of the names you've mentioned are rightfully included, so watch out for the video to come out soon.
@@contemporaryartissue I just enjoyed watching Part 2 . You introduced me to a lot of new painters who I look forward to investigating. Thank you!
I love Fairfield Porter's work....also what about Cecily Brown?....there seems to be a lack of recognition to female artists
Great suggestion, and yes, Cecily Brown is a major absentee. The list was assembles using the Artfacts algorithm, and yes, it illustrates that (especially when it comes to painting) female artists are still less pertinent in the art world. Thank you for tuning in!
There is some stunning works in there... thanks for the compilation. Know any contemporary watercolour landscape artists? Or even just contemporary watercolour artists? Would love to research a few names with my son for his homeschooling.
Hi there, thank you for tuning in and for the kind words. Very good question, the first names that pop to my mind must be Don Bachardy, Cecily Brown and I have also seen some terrific watercolor works by Jannis Kounellis and Luc Tuymans but they are rather rare.
@@contemporaryartissue thank you!
Hi there! Greetings from Sweden - I can recommend you have a look at the work of Lars Lerin. He's quite a famous artist in Scandinavia and his watercolours are stunning.
@@nynytjadesen2337 great thank you!
@@nynytjadesen2337 Hi there, thank you for the excellent recommendation!
Female artists are ignored again. What a shame.
Female artists don't produce such garbage, as they're focused on harmony and beauty, as they create stunning decorative art and crafts. Men often take risk, don't care about beauty or practicality of their work and enjoy antagonizing art institutions and people in general. So, this rating of hideous garbage is mostly done by biological males.
Very informative, but sadly only one female artist, Julie Mehretu made it into the the top 12 most important contemporary landscape painters.
A sad truth indeed... However, diversity is on the rise and with the current generations of artists we notice a very equal balance when it comes to gender. Thank you for tuning in!
do yourself a big favor and look up Anne Griffiths
Women don't care about pushing the limits or antagonize art institutions, usually. So they often end up doing decorative arts and crafts, but not the innovative type. They rarely take risks in life, because their biology is focused on more important things like safety and raising children. It's no surprise that you saw mostly men in those top ratings. It's natural. I'm a woman, 43 and speaking from experience living in traditional Eastern European society and modern North America 🇨🇦
@@mikesamovarov4054lol right, Mike Samovarov4054 sounds more like you're a troll, not a woman.
Good work
Thank you for your appreciative words and for watching!
Julie Mehretu a landscape painter? Well I guess if you consider broad fields of colour and line to be landscapes...
Check out Bob Kebic, Kim Dorland (Canada)
Yes, she creates landscapes for sure with her characteristic visual language. Thank you for the terrific suggestions by the way, most appreciated
quite good content, very nice and easy to hear. Could u add substitles for the next one? :D
Hi there, thank you so much for your valuable feedback and kind words. I believe UA-cam does a great job by automatically generating subtitles. You can activate them at the bottom right of the video player. Thank you for tuning in!
"one of the most"
Guru
I see from your own pinned post that you're embarrassed by lack of diversity. Rather than directing readers to another article, why not do better with this one? This is so well-made that it seems patently obvious that you could do better. In the interim, we must give thanks for the existence of Mehretu, lest all hallow'd artists be ordained in the image of the narrator.
Yes, a very good question and valid point. The reason why I do not meddle with these research results is because we aim to be as objective and art scientific as possible. Via this methodology, the Artfacts algorithm is able to provide a reasoned selection of the most prominent artists today. However, these top results still need to be interpreted with a critical pair of eyes and mind. The main reason why we adore using the Artfacts algorithm is that it enables us to approach fame/popularity/pertinence objectively. Otherwise, depending on the person who creates the list, it would be entirely different. If I made them, I would be imposing my personal opinion on you, which I don't feel comfortable with. Instead, with this algorithm, we can create these rankings in a very coherent and consistent manner. It crawls all artists in the world, so every artist is considered, and it can often show a discrepancy between our perception of the fame of a specific artist versus reality
@@contemporaryartissue I get it. And...
your article is called "A Complete Survey" including "the 12 most important artists".
Now that does sound like a worthy project, be it a book or an audiovisual piece.
And I do believe you're up to it. It sounds to me like you're as uncomfortable with the imposed parameters as I am.
A cavalcade of abstruse predictability.
i don' t see Landscapes in Mehretu's work....
There are abstract urban landscapes in them if you look closely of course. Some of her works are pure, almost lyrical, abstraction indeed.
Very white male orientated: To add a female landscape genius: Karin Mamma Andersson
Yes, we have included Mamma Andersson it the more extensive selection of the article: www.contemporaryartissue.com/the-best-contemporary-landscape-painting-a-complete-survey/ Great artist!
Well, the West is the most modern place and it leads the world. White men did contribute the most in human evolution. They're also likely to push the limits by taking risk, unlike women (who are focused on safety, beauty, harmony and raising children). Those are the reasons for this list. I'm happy that women didn't produce anything hideous enough to make it on this list.
Its a scandal that Beksinski is not even mentioned
A scandal sounds a bit harsh, but for sure Beksinski is well deserving of a spot here. Exceptional artist
I adore his work but I feel there are perhaps too many “people “in his works for him to be primarily a landscape artist
How does one then define landscape? Having figures in a landscape as a reference should not preclude any work of art as being a landscape , house's, boats on the shore are well known in the history of painting in many a famous landscape work. And in fact Beksinski does have work without any figures at all.
But he is a grim painter and that can be a turn off in today's overly sensitive world.
@@TruthSetsUfree100 I like a grim painter to be honest, Beksinski simply did not end up in top results of our survey. I strongly believe he is an underrated artist. A landscape can be much more than just a naturalistically rendered natural environment. Concerning the lack of figures, think of Joachim Patenir's works which were all religious/spiritual in fact, but it in the end it was not about the depicted scene but about the landscape
Well I’m sure you are right. His paintings are so relevant today that he should be near the top of any list. Terrifying and incredibly true
Is this a bot narrating, or am I going nuts?
You could have included a few more female artists.
Another interesting film but why the terrible commentary style ?
Ever since we have switched from the AI voice to my own personal voice. So I hope you prefer our more recent videos. Have a great day! All my best, JD
PLEASE work on your pronounciation of terms and specially NAMES! this ist no advertising for you!!! rgds h.
At the time, we still used a text to speach AI voice, hence the terrible pronounciation of the names... Thank you for the feedback!
What these paintings all seem to have in common: They're very large, and really hideous "landscapes". What a crock the art world has become.
Most are hideous, I agree 😂 With some interesting ones, but those are minority. Modern artists have art experience of a toddler and it truly shows in their fake art.
@@mikesamovarov4054 You nailed it!
It seems to me that there is not art in south america, africa and asia. What a deception review!!!
Hi Ivan, no there sure is! They simply did not end up in the top 12 results, hence not being presented in this video. We simply presented the top results of our survey. Good critical comment though, so thank you for tuning in!
@@contemporaryartissue who did you ask? The results are neither accurate nor reflective of reality (much less "scientific") if the people who are asked are the people who will only know or think of white men as "real artists" or "important" artists. A biased sampling obviously.
temporary CON ARTIST Landscape PaintingS ?
Yes, it's complete garbage. Which is obvious 😂
Un 0 a todos. Todo basado en el azar, a ver que pasa. Ninguna maestría
Exactly! Pile of garbage, what a scam 😂
It’s all junk
Don't know when I have last heard so much verbal diarrhea ??? A constant referal to various genres which describe people who cannot actually paint !!! Minimilast being the worst ! Really a case of "the emperors new clothes "
Yes, you're 100% correct. The king in fact is nakеd and that hideous garbage is definitely not art. What a scam! 😂
Did you notice all white and one token woman. Expand your horizons.
Hi there, thank you for tuning in. We have addressed this issue in our pinned comment (feel free to have a look). It has nothing to do with expanding our horizons as we are crawling the data of all artists in the world. We are simply presenting the top results from our survey, and as often, the top tiers of the art world still lack diversity. However, we strongly believe and notice things are shifting for the better. Feel free to read the entire article online, discover a broader selection of artists (link in description).
White men are leading the human evolution, so they are taking risks and push their limits. Read history, don't be so ignorant. Women like safety, harmony and beauty, so they didn't make it to this hideous garbage contest 😂
@@contemporaryartissue Not good enough.
Everything is now ridiculously abstract. These contemporary Abstractions is when you have a concept that you desperately need to convey but you dont know really how to paint well. Cant they be a little more subtle in there abstraction. Show off some skills in actual painting.
I disagree on this one, especially with landscape painting. If we would focus on skill and mimesis instead of a refreshing visual take on landscape painting-involving abstraction-the genre would become obsolete.
It's just hideous to me, because I've been exposed to high quality art throughout my life and developed rather refined taste. Most stuff in this video is absolute garbage 😂 I'd never pretend to like it, because I have my own eyes and brain. What a scam, this fake "art" 😂
Awful prononciation of Adrian Ghenie's name. You make it sound like 'genie in a bottle'. Do some research, try the speak feature from google translate, select Romanian.
Hi Alex, we are aware of this issue. In fact, we know the Romanian art scene pretty well, including how the names should be pronounced. The problem is with this narrator that it is an AI voice. The language is set the English, so we can not reproduce sounds that are not in the English language, nor can we switch to another voice in the middle of the video. But now things are better as we host our video's ourselves, instead of using an AI voice. In any case, thank you for tuning in!
Once again, only 1 woman included.
Women don't make garbage like that 😂 They like harmony and beauty, on average.
What a load of old tosh. Mumbo jumbo & meaningless non speak, the works featured are banal in the extreme.
only one woman. this art system and your list is still in the dark ages.
We have anticipated these conclusions in our pinned comment, which I would like to refer to. We strongly promote diversity and inclusivity. However, when we have done a survey, we will not meddle with the results of course, otherwise the survey would lose its art scientific value. We would have loved to see more female artists in this list!
@@contemporaryartissue yes. and still a long way to go. kind of proves my theory... the art system is not inclusive in its historic as well as current DNA. your data will find men predominantly in all of your lists. guess why? sigh.
@@gabrielepichler The reason why our data results in predominantly men in our lists is not because our algorithm discriminates, however it illustrates the art world still does. This is a very important difference of course. Doing so we measure how the diversity is changing, think of our list of artists born after 1970, which was very balanced, whereas other lists with older generations, we see the opposite.
Women don't make such garbage 😂
And not one of them a female... disappointing...
Wow…. Did I miscount or was there seriously only ONE woman on this list???
Please read our pinned comment concerning this matter. Thank you for tuning in!
Women don't normally create pathetic garbage like these scam artists 😂
Too many men

And thats the main problem not the fact all the artists are not that good
Only men can produce such сrаp 😂
All men. I guess there are no women landscape painters.
Hi Susan, thank you for tuning in. We have anticipated these conclusions in our pinned comment, which I would like to refer to. We strongly promote diversity and inclusivity.

Women don't make uggly сrар like that 😂
Can't stand text to voice. Bye.
Only white men feature on this channel,and a white woman or two. *clicking on don't recommend*
Dear Inotila, sorry to hear you feel this way. However, as I have stated in the pinned comment, we anticipated these conclusions whereas we simply have presented the top results from our survey. We are doing are very best to promote more diversity in the art world: we critically discuss the lack of diversity time and time again with these top lists, we have created a separate video and the greatest female artists, we have recently published an article on African painters you need to know on our site, which will be featured in a video in two weeks time... I hope this might be helpful for you
I'm glad you guys are taking steps to improve. I will say this, its not about specifically Africans or the lack of. Its about every body, else. Let me give you an example, think about the American world series, how is it a world series If only one country takes part. How is a "survey" a legitimate/complete top list of it didn't cover all that fall in the category of artist. My issue is not with the list, im sure those artist are great, but to call them the most important is a big claim.
@@inotilaatinghaamwa9333 Hi there, I am not familiar with the American World Series. I think I understand what you mean, however, our algorithm crawls all artists across the world, encompassing every continent, country or city. By measuring their influence in the art world (number of shows at major institutions, retrospectives, exposure in major art publications, biennales, auction results, etc.), a selection of top results emerges of the artists who are statistically the most important, which is the selection we have presented here.
@@contemporaryartissue okay, i understand now. Keep uo the good work!
@@inotilaatinghaamwa9333 Thank you Inotila!
There are no woman artists here at all. That’s disappointing.
Hi there Bethany, thank you for tuning in and for your critical comment. As we have stated in the pinned comment, we anticipated these conclusions whereas we simply have presented the top results from our survey. We are doing are very best to promote more diversity in the art world: we critically discuss the lack of diversity time and time again with these top lists, for instance, we have created a separate video and the greatest female artists. We strongly promote diversity. But not diversity for the sake of diversity. If these are the results from our survey, then we can only present these results. Altering them would make the selection less valuable from an art scientific perspective.
just men? Please do better
Please read the pinned comment in which we address this issue. Thank you for tuning in
