Abstract art might not resonate with everyone, yet some works stand out, embodying the spirit of their times with such intensity that they cannot be overlooked.
A prime example is Picassoโs 'Guernica'. This painting vividly portrays the terrible consequences of the bombing of Guernica by German and Italian forces, becoming an iconic representation of the atrocities and suffering of WWII.
During his residence in Nazi-occupied Paris, Picasso kept a photograph of 'Guernica' in his apartment. Legend has it that a Nazi officer, upon seeing the photograph, questioned Picasso, asking, "Is this your creation?" To which Picasso reportedly replied, "No, this is your doing."

Today, there are 28 instances of Auguste Rodin's iconic sculpture located around the world. Originally, this sculpture was not conceived as a standalone work. The inception of the famous statue occurred as the focal point of an ambitious project from 1880 named 'The Gates of Hell'. Inspired by Dante's Inferno, the central figure of this original piece is intended to represent Dante Alighieri himself. The widely recognized version of The Thinker emerged significantly later, in 1904, as a greatly enlarged adaptation of the initial statue.

- Facts About Famous Artworks #3
The iconic statue of David, sculpted by Michelangelo, is arguably the most famous statue worldwide. Interestingly, the marble piece from which this renowned work was carved had been passed around among several sculptors, likely due to its perceived inferior quality. In a turn of events in 1991, the statue suffered damage from vandalism, prompting the fragments to undergo detailed analysis. This examination showed that the marble was notably porous, indicating a quicker deterioration rate. Such a flaw may explain why earlier sculptors, including Agostino di Duccio and Antonio Rossellino, who once possessed the marble, eventually discarded it. The piece lay forgotten for almost half a century until Michelangelo transformed it into what is celebrated today as a pinnacle of Renaissance sculpture.

Salvador Dali, the renowned surrealist master, often described his creations as "dream photographs painted by hand". This phrase fittingly encapsulates the essence of one of the most distinguished surrealists. However, not every peculiar element in his paintings stemmed from his dreams. For instance, Dali revealed that the inspiration for his celebrated melting clocks was not a figment of his imagination but rather a real-life observation: chunks of Camembert cheese, forgotten by his wife Gala on a table, slowly dissolving under the warmth of the sun. Can you spot the similarity?

Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper," located in the Convent of Santa Maria Delle Grazie in Milan, is one of the most studied and revered works in art history. This mural depicts the moment Jesus announces that one of his disciples will betray him. Da Vinci's innovative use of perspective and his ability to capture the emotional intensity of the scene were groundbreaking. The painting's deterioration over time has been a subject of concern, leading to various restoration efforts. Its history, including the loss of the lower section due to a doorway installation, adds to its mystique.

In this series, I will share less known stories and details of famous artworks. Let's start with Van Gogh's "The Starry Night" ๐๐
Van Gogh's 'The Starry Night' is so famous it's practically part of pop culture now. It really shows off his unique style, but interestingly, Van Gogh himself wasn't too happy with it โ he even mentioned this in a letter to his brother Theo. Fun fact: he actually painted this masterpiece from memory, based on the view from his window at the Saint-Rรฉmy-de-Provence mental health facility where he was staying at the time.

- Did you know that one of the most famous artworks was actually a mistake?
Art is full of surprises, and sometimes the greatest masterpieces arise from the unexpected. Take, for instance, Leonardo da Vinci's 'Mona Lisa.' Legend has it that her enigmatic smile wasn't part of the original plan. Da Vinci, while experimenting with new techniques, ended up altering her expression in a way he hadn't intended. This 'mistake' gave the painting a unique allure, captivating millions for centuries. It's a reminder that in the world of art, sometimes the 'flaws' become the most celebrated features. What do you think, can mistakes truly make a masterpiece?

- ๐ผ๏ธ Have you ever wondered why staring at a painting can evoke emotions you didn't know you had? It's not just about the colors or the shapes, but something deeper, something inherently human that connects us to art.
๐ผ๏ธ Art isnโt just a feast for the eyes; itโs a dialogue between the canvas and our psyche. When we gaze upon a masterpiece, our brain dances in a symphony of neural activity. It's not just appreciation we're feeling; it's a complex psychological interaction.
๐ผ๏ธ This interaction goes back to the dawn of humanity. Our ancestors expressed their hopes, fears, and stories through cave paintings, creating the first emotional bridges through art. Today, these bridges are more intricate and profound.
๐ผ๏ธ From the serene blues of a Monet to the jarring distortions of a Picasso, each artwork whispers a different story, triggering unique emotional responses. This is because art taps into our subconscious, stirring emotions and memories we might not even be aware of.
๐ผ๏ธ But it's not just about emotion. Viewing art can enhance cognitive abilities and memory. It can provide therapeutic benefits, helping to alleviate anxiety, depression, and stress. It's a silent yet powerful form of communication, transcending language and culture.
๐ผ๏ธ So, the next time you stand before a painting, ask yourself: What am I feeling? Why does this image move me? The answers might reveal more about your inner world than you expect.

Alex Maksiov, for Big Walls Big Dreams 2022, presents a lifelike mural of a guitarist lost in the strings of his melody. As commuters rush by, theyโre briefly part of a concert where the music is felt, not heard. The guitar case lies open, a metaphor for dreams waiting to be filled.
