Strange Choices…..
God! What boring imagery that passes for art.
You didn't mention that the white artists are white.

At this point, there’s only 2 groups of people in the entire universe: “Not-White,” and “Not Not-White.” Contrary to popular belief, for those in the “Not-White” category, their own identity is actually irrelevant. What *IS* of critical importance, however, is that you know they’re “Not-White.” As in _“I’m anything but White. Please God, please don’t make me be White…” (akin to Canadians defining themselves as “not American”). So there’s the “Not White” group, and everyone else. Forever condemned to live out the rest of their miserable, bigoted lives with all the other “Not Not-Whites.”
If art critics became artists.
Who calls this art? GOD FORGIVE US!
None of them are really good painters, maybe Kehynde willey but it´s still a kind of painting that is easy to replace with fotography.
ONE WOMEN??? How about Kara Walker, Mikalene Thomas, Vija Celmins, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, Sarah Sze, Njideka Akunyili Crosby, etc etc etc. There are numerous accomplished significant arts that happen to be female. Why are they ignored?

There are plenty of realistic contemporary painters who are both extraordinary artists and financially successful, but realism has not been at the epicenter of the art market for several decades. Styles, preferences and artistic mandates have always been dynamic. There's no disrespect for realism, rather a desire to search and create other tangents of visual art.

Few people who create what is considered art are able and skilled enough to draw and paint realistically anymore so it’s called “traditional “ and dismissed as passé, which is ridiculous

Kehinde Wiley is on here.
The Alex Katz portrait of a lady in the rain with an umbrella shown briefly at the 17:13 mark was displayed in a hallway by the former Margaret Lipworth Gallery in Gallery Center of Boca Raton back in the 90s for a few years. I worked in another contemporary gallery in the same center and passed this large work at least 50 times a day, to the point where It would frequently appear in my dreams. For a while, we had designated wall space directly beside the work. This presented a challenge since the Katz work was massive, easily dwarfing even paintings over 12 feet long.
Art should be beautiful, original and surprising. Not this garbage.

Nah
Art is subjective and one can like or dislike. My take on these famous artists is that none of their artwork - at least the ones shown in this video - convey an emotion or beauty. It's all about repetition of a message or of the same patterns. No emotions, nada, flat. However, if' you've been friend with Basquiat, you score many points!
I didn't see a single blind or quadriplegic person. I didn't see any elephants painting either. They are very smart and might identify as a male, gay, black artist.
2:06, the colourful BMW is by a South African Dr of arts, Dr. Esther Mahlangu, She is well known for her Nguni, Ndebele paintings. Okay Thank you Bye.
Excuse me, but Kazimir Malevich is not a russian artist, he was Ukrainian 6:28 He was born in Kyiv, wrote letters to his family in Ukrainian, and identified as Ukrainian. He was arrested and interrogated by the Russians, because of his ucranian motifs in artworks, then they forbade him from creating art. And yet, later, as he became well-known, they started calling him a “russian artist,” which is another example of russia stealing Ukrainian culture. I understand it’s easy to get mistaken when russia spreads so much misinformation, even editing Wikipedia. But I wanted to highlight this since it’s important to me as a Ukrainian artist. Thanks for understanding.

the photo at 24:32 is not of a young Jasper Johns, but of a young Richard Diebenkorn
excellence!
The title should’ve read 16 painters living in America. I say that as an artist and aficionado.
Is painting big the main criteria, showy and brash, very American I suppose, and lip service to include one woman 🤷🏻♀️
Amazing prices
Me still waiting to be in this type of list, but I know I will probably die with know one knowing my work lol

Where are the artists born after the Boomers. Always the same list of artists and Andy Warhol always has to be in the picture somewhere.
Hate it. Boring. Making people fool. They're destroyingthe the arts of the painting , but some people who destroyed the art of painting for making huge money promoting the terrible false values . Unfortunately they kept the market, and no one can turn back this tragic process. You can see how people ignore it because it I'd falce, and miserable. I know that I can't change it, but I say what is in my mind.

Just Julie Mehretu in this sampling. It seems the art world can't handle race and gender inequalities at the same time. That said, women artists have been gaining far more attention in the contemporary art world over the past 20 to 30 years than they have in any other period. Small steps.
You know there woman artist too!

16 artists, and only 1 is a woman. Does this mean that there are no women artists in America at all?
Kinda very predicatable list, very androcentric. Where's Dana Schutz? A much better painter than most of these, though KJM is one of the best, and SS is probably the best colourist here. A few are laughably inadequte.

Maybe call the vid "My favourite contemporary American painters", it would be less contentious. But then I guess online etiquette is always about getting a reaction. My video is in another, parallel universe, where capitalism never happened.
Not a single painter here. Daub. Those guys are mediocre ad poster drawers at most. In fact,
There are some decent inclusions here… but some real head-scratchers as well… seems like maybe this is just AI generated content? Can’t imagine someone actively curating this list and thinking they nailed it (only 1 woman; Schnabel and Scharf as top painters?) Good surface information on a handful of artists; but seriously lacking any reasoning to back up many of these people as being ‘top’ painters.

Amazing, in 2024 you only mention 1 female artist in the top 16. You have to be kidding. Shame on you..

There are so many artist in American that have order of magnitude more talent and skills then the 15 listed here. Wiley may deserve to be on the list. Glancing over the video and seeing the art work I have zero interest in learning more about any of theses artist. Boring, woke, Pc, soulless, appeal to the lowest common denominator. At best this is ok corporate art, AT BEST!
unless it is really BIG it is overlooked
trash art and trash art... contemporany art my dog can do
So far they have been abstract rubbish. Art should be things of beauty and these are not atall, they are like wallpaper or interior design, they have lost the plot, these painting or more than funishings
This is bullshit. One woman?
They r making fool telling they r best .. from art we need to feel peace n beauty, these painting looks like garbage 🗑

Honestly, in 2024 there's really no reason to create a video like this and not include more diversity. These artists lists always go the same way (celebrating the same roster of famous artists). It's time other people (women, POC) got more attention.
All of these “best of” lists are amusing. This one is particularly horrifying. They’re all subjective, but there are criteria that should be applied when considering great art. This guy settled a one-sided affirmative action approach. Go big or go home, bro. You omitted women-women of color, specifically. No trans artists? Shame on you. 😂
So many abstract artists are calling there poorly designed art modern ?? Amateur at best .
Crap artists 😂😂😂😂
