List of significant Artists, by Deleted on Feb 13, 2017 13:28:20 GMT 1, I'm working on something which includes reference to what I consider significant artists of modern times. List I have so far is below. Any others looking at that list which you feel should be added. I am questioning whether to drop some of the non urban in favour of others. I know it's a bit vague on what i'm looking for but any well known artists basically. Basically need a final list of 16.
Dali Warhol Freud Bacon Hirst Banksy Picasso Lichtenstein pollock Hockney Basquiat

I would think based on the other artists maybe only Banksy, time will judge the others. I dig Fairey, but he could be this generation's Peter Max, time will tell. JR will age as memorably as French cars.
But I do have a question regarding "artists from modern times" - some listed and suggested were working 70-100 years ago. "Modern times" to me might more accurately reflect 1980's to current.
Here's some names that the art world considers relevant and impactful in the last 20 years: Ai Weiwei, Barry McGee, Paul McCarthy, Kara Walker, Banksy, Cindy Sherman, Takashi Murakami, Jeff Koons, Maurizio Cattelan, Barbara Kruger, Yayoi Kusama and of course Hirst.

List of significant Artists, by daveart on Feb 13, 2017 14:57:59 GMT 1, Something you might find interesting. It doesnt answer your question at all .. just .. might be worth looking at.. Artnet has a list of all of the artists cataloged in their system. On a somewhat hard to find page you can see the artists that are getting the most searches. I cannot say how accurate or relevant this is.. but i have checked it over many years and it is interesting to spot trends and see who is climbing and who is falling. -sometimes quite surprising information -
so, since you say "significant" - does that mean 'popular' 'getting the most attention' 'highest prices at auction ' 'most artistic merit' .. anyway, this list could give insight into the artists generating the most traffic on one of the largest online art databases... i bet if you look at it you will be surprised by at least some of the information.

You are absolutely, absolutely, no doubt, missing Duchamp. He is the most important and most influential artist this side of impressionism (and debatably, ever).
I would also add Koons and Beuys.
Maybe remove Freud, Bacon, Hirst or Hockney (or maybe even Banksy, we are biased).

List of significant Artists, by Deleted on Feb 13, 2017 19:43:53 GMT 1, Sorry knew I was vague! I should probably say most famous of 20th/21st century. So on that basis I wouldn't include some of these that only us art freaks know :-) Shep Fairey I would say isn't that famous to those not interested in modern art (just my opinion please don't start a 5 page argument to the contrary. :-) ) I'm inclined to add Haring, moons, laws? people may know the images but maybe not the artist? Tracey Emin? Rothko, Blake? but again are they famous to non arty's? And no i'm not adding Rolf Harris,Tony Hart or Reggie Kray.

Maybe Man Ray because of his historical importance and his association with dada and surrealism.
But Mapplethorpe pretty much just made it as a photographer. (But maybe, maybe)
Bailey, just no. Theres a dozen more important fashion photographers than him.
I think you said it yourself, these guys are just influential to photography. Cindy Sherman is influential to ART.

Cindy Sherman does nothing for me , she just takes photos of herself.
Mapplethorpe did some great portraits. Man Ray with his solarized photos and his art was very influential. Bailey yes indeed. We wouldn't have Austin Powers without Bailey.

Am guessing tomawal is French, hence the French version of the name, which BTW is what Leonardo would have been called for the approx. 50% of his life he lived there.
It would be interesting to see if his tombstone has the French or Italian spelling of his name...Anyone know ?
