My favorite styles are surrealism, expressionism and impressionism.

I'm not too picky when it comes to art, I like just about everything. Except most modern art, stuff like concept art, abstract expressionism, De Stijl and most (not all) pop art, which I despise.
Bacon and Escher are awesome. I think my favorite of the surrealists is probably Roberto Matta though, his paintings are stunning. Also, I can understand a dislike for modern art (especially from you) but even abstract expressionism? De Kooning is great, for one.
