Post-1900s (Now)

Dispersion
Dispersion by Julie Mehretu's in 2002 (www.artspace.com)

This painting is very abstract but in a way makes an image. To me it almost looks like a small passage in a bush.

The Hinterland
The Hinterland by Glenn Brown in 2006 (www.artspace.com)

This image is showing what appears to be a big mess of people pushed together and I think the artist was sad.

 100 years ago
100 Years Ago by Peter Doig in 2000(www.artspace.com)

This is a man on a canoe. He is kind of kind of a vapor so I think this is a ghost from 100 years ago.

Lion Occupying the Throne in my Heart
Lion Occupying the Throne in my Heart by Takashi Murakami in 2018 (Artsy.net)

This image is very cool because I have always liked the symbolism in skulls and the color is great.

Girl with Balloon
Girl With Balloon by Banksy in 2002 (en.wikipedia.org)

This is one of my favorite pictures because of the symbolism. I think it tells of how fragile love is and not every child can be loved growing up.

Slave Labor
Slave Labor by Banksy in 2012 (en.wikipedia.org)

Another image by Banksy that protests child labor by having a boy make the Union Jack.

Mobile Lovers
Mobil Lovers by Banksy in 2014 (en.wikipedia.org)

This picture represents that people are more attached to their phones than family and spouses. Even best friends.

Self Portrait
Self Portrait by Chuck Close in 2005 (www.artyfactory.com)

Chuck Close has a disability that makes it hard for him to make out faces. He invented a way to paint faces by making little squares and icons. The picture is of him.

James
James with close up detail by Chuck Close in 2004 (www.artyfactory.com)

Another incredible face painting by Chuck Close.

Pumpkin
Yellow Pumpkin by Yayoi Kusama in 2013 (Artsy.net)

This is a clay pumpkin that has a black and yellow pattern on it.
