Mid-Morning Art Thread

Married Life
Roger de La Fresnaye

This is odd, and decidedly not human. What a strange life the artist must have led to see his, or anyone's, marriage through the lens of Cubism. I understand seeing the world, or politics, or architecture, or even nature as the hard angles and cold images of that art world.

But love? That's...disturbing.

29 Morning, Art Consumers,

The naked lady has some pretty hefty haunches there.

What, I wonder, is in that silver can on the table at upper right? Zoomed in, it looks like a silver beer mug with a foamy head on it.

Also, are those yellow things on the table supposed to be fruit of some kind? That's wrong, too.

"If girls have curves, why edges?"

Posted by: Lizzy at March 16, 2026 09:42 AM (Suwql)

58 All seriousness aside, this is a dramatic painting. Cubism often seems that way, with the sharp and unexpected angles. And the red couch and tabletop, the orange face of the left-hand table, and the big blue book (an atlas?), enliven the dark and neutral colors.

The slices of cheese (?) on the table between Naked Lady's head and the beer mug are intriguing. Looking at them, you expect to see a knife . . . and there it is in the woman's nose, with the darkness covering her mouth standing in for the knife handle.

But the woman's right hand is wrapped around the man's arm, and they are leaning in towards each other. He is looking towards her and she seems relaxed or at ease.

Anyway, hello, 'rons and 'ronettes. A cold, rainy day here at Stately Poppins Manor. Going to do my best to knock off a chapter of my novel today. Wish me luck (and freedom from depression).

Cubism can be interesting if it's used properly but so many artists used it to be edgy, it actually became boring. I think it works in "Nude Descending a Staircase" because that work is about motion not the nude.

Sinners was really good. It should have won more. I felt like it was just on the verge of something great, which just needed some editing help to get there.

it was obviously since Anderson had not won they were going to give it to him this year, then the rest of the awards were mostly to make up for that, since that film is clearly not his best.

201 181 President Trump was stunned to learn last week that US intelligence indicates new Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei may be gay — and that his father, the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, feared his suitability to rule the Islamic Republic for that reason.

Wouldn't declining to throw Mojtaba off of a high building mean that Ali Khamenei doesn't get his 72 virgins?

Sinners was one of the better movies, yes. But honestly that's a sign of how far movie making has fallen.

20 years ago Sinners would have been "best movie of a particular weekend" and there would have been 20-30 better ones.
Posted by: 18-1 at March 16, 2026 10:22 AM (sKqQm)

"Sinners" was decent. Good action, good acting, good music. I liked the first half better. I think it would have worked well as a revenge fantasy against the Klan, which is where I thought it was going at first, similar to "Inglorious Basterds".

228 This video was interesting, although probably not for the reason they think; Hollywood is dying, and the workers won't identify the real reasons. At 1:30, a not unintelligent woman describes a convergence of factors, but never mentions the fact that HW despises half the country, and keeps making the same crappy stuff for decades. (superheroes, I'm looking at you). Look at what won the Oscars - movies that most of us haven't seen and will never see.

I feel a bit badly for the blue collar workers who are losing their jobs, but they work for an industry that simply refuses to put the preferences of their customers first.

282 268 The only film from last night that anyone will even remotely be talking about in 20 years is Sinners.

it was only nominated for Best Actress I think but in twenty years people will likely be still interested in If I Had Legs I'd Kick You

it's highly anti-therapy and anti-current treatment norms for kids supposedly on-a-spectrum. it's shocking. the creator actually went thru this with her child and actually was able to... put all that pain on film. I went thru similar things with my kids and it was ROUGH to watch this

Seriously? I forgot all about it 5 minutes after it ended.

Totally forgettable film. Totally derivative as well. It will come to symbolize the post-BLM racism that is pervasive in the culture.

292 HW despises half the country, and keeps making the same crappy stuff for decades. (superheroes, I'm looking at you).

Superheroes made an awful lot of money before they decided that superhero movies needed to be a vehicle to push THE MESSAGE.

Studio heads make a great deal of money. Their primary responsibility is to determine where the zeitgeist is going so as to greenlight future movies. A blind man could see that the SH genre was totally overexposed and redundant, yet they continued to dump billions into them.

I would have been willing to tell them that for much less than they earn.

As noted, no one is going to be talking about any of the films from last night in 20 years, with the possible exception of Sinners.

Regardless of your particular tastes, the films from 95 and 96 have deeply penetrated the zeitgeist and will be remembered, commented on and viewed, long after their initial debut.

I think it's a good portion nostalgia

for how it felt to watch those when you were young

trust me they do NOT hold up. people my kids' age do not think they're better than current films

because - those particular ones? - they aren't.

It kind of feels like increasingly, movies are being made more pretentious in order to culturally divide people into "ingroup" and "outgroup", and THAT is their primary focus.

Hollywood used to try to strike a balance between commercially successful films and art house/critic favorites.

Now the films are largely selected as a mechanism to service THE MESSAGE or to stick it to the squares.

317 I like Diego Rivera's type of Cubism, not the multi-dimensional, let-me-put-your-boob-on sideways Cubism. So this is a miss for me.

I saw "Solo Mio" a few weeks ago, which is the first movie I've seen at the theater in more than a year. I liked it. It was a Romcom from a guy's perspective, and the reason for the break-up that sets the stage made sense. The side characters were fun, too. I loved the soundtrack.
