Ward Shelley Paintings of art and cultural history.

I like these paintings by New York artist Ward Shelley, Schematic and organic timelines of cultural themes such as 'Who invented the avantgarde', 'Autonomus art', 'History of science fiction' and 'The beats' In the following page you can open and watch high resolution versions of them.  http://www.wardshelley.com/paintings/newpaintings2.html



"Usually I choose topics from art or cultural history, such as the arc of an artist's career and its influences, or the effect of particular ideas in an aesthetic or political movement. They are "wide-screen"  Ward Shelley
