Francis Bacon in his small and filthy London studio
Francis Bacon (1909, Dublin - 1992, Madri) is my idol. Who I admire and envy. A single scream, maybe monotonic, but unmistakable, and which shall echo till the end of this insane civilization. He never studied art, yet developed his own, very peculiar, way of painting, exploring distortions of the human figure, often mixed with animal forms, to show the violence encrusted in the cynical and alienated human kind.
