If you wanted a modern look and wanted to hang up black and white pictures in black frames. My room is kinda small, but I want to change things up and put up some BW pictures like the generic ones they sell at walmart. I’m on a budget and was looking for some suggestions. Light colors.. dark would probably "shrink" my room.

Thanks! Also, ANY other suggestions on room ideas would be great.

although modern artists rightly rebelled against the rigid and mechanical academic art of the 19th century, what they sought to replace it with is equally bad – crudely executed canvases whose only selling point was the charisma and personality of the painters and the heady thrill of iconoclasm. evaluated solely as works of art, the paintings of picasso, matisse, kandinsky, klee, pollock, rothko, and almost any other 20th century artist you could name are lacking obviously and deliberately in drawing, but also in the sorts of things you might expect they could have easily pursued – arrangements of light and dark, and subtle color effects. In short, the works are ugly, and were you to look at details of the paint handling of delacroix, rembrandt, and turner you would find them to be far more satisfactory as abstract compositions than those of the modernists.
