"Red Egg"
Oskar Kokoschka, 1941.
The painting is an example of acute political satire, the artist's reaction to the Munich Agreement that shook him, which, having satisfied the territorial claims of Germany, Hungary and Poland to Czechoslovakia, actually led to the partition of the country.

"Rebirth"
Tomasz Alain Koper, 2010.
Tomasz studied mechanical engineering at the Wroclaw University of Technology, but his vocation has always been painting. The artist paints oil on canvas surrealist paintings where he reflects human nature and the mysteries of the universe.
"In my work, I try to reach the subconscious. I want to hold the viewer's attention for a longer moment. To make him reflect, to make him think."

"Blue Lovers"
Marc Chagall, 1914.
The painting "Blue Lovers" is clearly phantasmagorical. Space and objects are distorted as if in a dream. The color blue for Chagall is the embodiment of the Mother of God, the kingdom of heaven. It is this color that the artist used to convey the feeling of love, happiness and tenderness.

"Madonna spanking the Christ child in front of three witnesses"
Max Ernst, 1926.
The beginning of a new stage in his work was marked by the painting "Madonna, spanking the infant Christ in front of three witnesses", painted in 1926. In general, this picture is still considered one of the most shocking in his work. But it is also interesting because Ernst here is just beginning to search for his own artistic style.

"Cold"
Remedios Varo, 1948.
A painting of an interesting surrealist artist who had to flee France for Mexico to save her talent and her art from Nazi persecution. Despite being close to such creative geniuses of surrealism as Max Ernst, Salvador Dali, Frida Kahlo Remedios Varo was able to develop her own, unique style, which is difficult to confuse with any of her contemporaries.

"Bubonic Plague"
Richard Tennant Cooper, c. 1912 г.
The painting depicts a giant hand symbolizing the deadly disease that roams the dark streets of London at night and preys on all living things. People, pets and rats try to hide or escape, but in vain. Death is close at hand and knows no mercy.

"Fresh Air"
James Franco
In 2011, a woman named Aimee Davidson purchased a "masterpiece" worth $10,000. The painting, which even its owner will not be able to see, is called "Fresh Air" by James Franco, who is trying to take conceptual art to a whole new level.
Along with the painting, the woman received a prospectus with a description of the work, made by the author, and a guarantee of the authenticity of the masterpiece. It is recommended to place the invisible painting on the wall, not occupied by other works of art, so that viewers are not distracted from contemplating the work of the master. Next to the picture, the author of the painting offers to place its description, so that guests know what exactly to admire to please the owners of the house.

"The Witch"
Alfred Cuban, 1900.
Alfred Kubin is one of those whose work has turned out to be associated with the motifs of madness. At the age of ten, Alfred attempted suicide when his mother died. Suicidal tendencies apparently did not leave him for some time. His freedom from the psychiatric hospital was helped by artists he knew, as well as the writer Hermann Hesse, who vouched for Kubin.

"Barbarians"
Max Ernst, 1937.
Barbarians, according to Ernst, represent a combination of under-living and over-living. What they do not have, do not know and hate in advance is the average life on earth, humanity in its humility, its relativity and nobility. They are the children of Hell and Paradise, a monstrous mixture of both.

"Self-portrait with a damaged eye"
Francis Bacon, 1972.
There was an occasion in the artist's life when he nearly lost an eye. One of his lovers, Peter Lacey, gave him a severe beating. However, he had broken up with Lacey long before he painted Self-Portrait with a Damaged Eye. So what did the author want to tell us with his work? To retell a biographical episode from 15 years ago?
