Has there been any art made in the past 50 years or so that's actually somewhat timeless?
Like i dislike people who just want to return to an empty form of a previous aesthetic (in a Spenglerian sense), but i also think there's nothing creative left.

Even if all AI art were banned, does art really have a future?

You need to think more broadly. Art has taken on a completely different form now. You are focused on a big painting or a marble statue. That's not what art is anymore. This Pepe is a timeless piece of art.

There’s a Christian Japanese guy out of New Jersey who makes neo-traditional/post-modern art that is quite good. I personally thought highly of Gerhard Richter.

That's why you bring your Italian flygirl to the exhibits so you can take ass pics of her while under the guide of art appreciation.

I think, without a doubt, the best modern art comes from comics and manga. Mostly manga, but Western comics and video games used to qualify too. Galleries are just for money laundering, and for the increasingly inbred world of ‘artists’ to pat each other on the back because almost nobody else cares except them.

art takes a long time to develop, movements require decades to form and then are appreciated afterwards for their longevity, ability to create culture, schools, institutions, influence the elite of society, achieve commercial success, be mass produced for a consumer class etc.

the most important art movement for the past 50 years has been cinema, probably there have been many timeless movies produced in the previous 100 years, with realism in acting technique and direction entering the medium in the 50s and 60s so about 70 years ago.

if you are talking about the stillness and aesthetic quality of the painting, then i would suggest you visit or watch this:

the artistic movement of american capitalism, suburbia, the mall. that is what the late 20th early 21st century will be remembered for. we are in the internet era now, but that is transitional, since it is a new medium not a new form. eg. you won't find a lot of photographs from the early 1800s but you will find a lot from the late 1800s and early 1900s faked to look older. likewise we are only 35 years into the "internet", so likely future humans will never get to experience or see anything that we would consider authentic or contemporary internet. but they will get some zoomer slop yet to be invented which will become resonant in the next few decades. the same way nostalgia about the 80s is more authentically 80s than the decade itself was.

Games and online video are the only art form worth engaging with in 2026. The only spaces where new ideas are coming from.

If you want to read a good book or watch a good film, there is no reason to consume something from the 2020's when you could go enjoy something old.

Games like elden ring and outer wilds are the next step in art and exceed anything done in any other medium in this decade.

Literally the best art ever created is made now, but nobody appreciates it because of photography. Also, picrel is an actual hand drawing, and AI art is art.

That painter should cool it with the antisemitism.
