 Topic: Prog Art
Posted: September 09 2005 at 16:35 |
At college today we had a short lecture on the history of art. This got me thinking, maybe it's covered, who do you think was/is the most progressive artist?
For me either Jotto or Picaso
Anyone else?

I agree with Miracle, Roger Dean best represents prog music, but I
don't think this is what you are asking. All the masters in any period
were progressive for their time, with quite a few of them changing the
direction of art.

^^^ thats a pretty cool picture but it reminds me more of metal than prog.
for me the most prog artist is definitely Salvador Dali.
The shapes are recognizable but everything is different, more
complicated, and exists on several levels. much like prog music.
