What artists do you like?
moorej: Marcel Duchamp for his consideration that "art" is something socially constructed i.e. not immanent within the thing itself.Raphael, seeing his paintings in person renewed my love of art.Many others.As far as composed music is concerned there are many as well but at this moment I'll say Webern for mystery and Xenakis for energy. Also Helmut Lachenmann is good.
