Francis Bacon
Is an English philosopher, known for his founding of the experimental approach based on observation and experimentation. Which revolutionized human knowledge.
Surpassing the Aristotelian logic, which depends on measurement, indicating its infertility and futility in producing new knowledge that advances science forward. So replace it with what he calls the new logic based on empirical induction.
Francis Bacon's paintings are frightening and sometimes terrifying, a head fluttering in front of a curtain, someone screaming under a canopy, another person sitting in a small windowless room as if he were imprisoned in hell.
The life of this painter has always been a source of interest for many critics and art historians
In addition to painting, Francis Bacon was a philosopher and reader. His famous words: All colors correspond in the dark. The painting is not always an honest expression of the painter's mood, as he may be in a state of great despair yet paint a painting full of joy and joy. One of the most deplorable situations is the fact that the things we desire are few and the things we are afraid of are many. Some books improve their taste, others eat them, and very few have to be chewed and digested. There are four things that are best at age: the forest to burn, the wine to drink, the old friend to trust, the veteran writer to read
How have you been @reddust since the time we did not talk

I didn't know Francis Bacon painted as well...now I know I am fine company!

I have read some articles that challenged him and his artistic and literary works on Facebook
I was fond of some of his famous sayings like
The ultimate goal of life is not knowledge but action.

  • Start with the necessary, then go to the possible, you suddenly find yourself doing the impossible.
  • Aging in the soul more than lies in the body
