Without this sign, art history would look very different.
Capricorn artists don’t seek immediate applause —
yet they are often the most indispensable figures in art history.
They ensure that art is not only seen,
but built, preserved, and written into history.
🎨 Here are six representative Capricorn Artists:
1️⃣ Henri Matisse（12/31）
Leader of Fauvism, placing emotional expression above realism through bold color and simplified form,
profoundly shaping the course of modern art.
⸻
2️⃣ Jean-Michel Basquiat（12/22）
Rising from graffiti, Basquiat fused text, symbols, Black identity, and pop culture to confront race, power, identity, and death —
breaking the boundary between art and mainstream culture, and becoming a central figure of 1980s Neo-Expressionism.
⸻
3️⃣ Louise Bourgeois（12/25）
One of the most influential female artists of the 20th and 21st centuries, she transformed fear, trauma, and the body into a powerful sculptural language of the psyche.
⸻
4️⃣
Paul Cézanne（1/19）
Known as the father of modern art, Cézanne restructured vision through geometry, color, and multiple viewpoints, laying the foundation for Cubism and abstraction, deeply influencing artists such as Picasso and Matisse.
⸻
5️⃣ Damien Hirst（1/7）
One of the most controversial artists in contemporary art, a leading figure of the Young British Artists (YBA),
confronting death, belief, and capitalism
to shape the language of contemporary art.
⸻
Heavyweights from different eras all gathered! 👏🏻👏🏻
And let’s not forget — this spirit is not limited to Western art history.
In Taiwan, there are also artists who continue to build and shape their own artistic language.
6️⃣ Huang Chih-Cheng（1/9）
Working with gold leaf and ink,
Huang creates a subtle tension between tradition and contemporaneity
⸻
🌟 Capricorn artists, through long-term dedication and structural thinking, quietly build the backbone and depth of art.
They do not rush to be seen, yet time and again they reshape how art is understood, preserved, and carried forward.
Across different eras and cultures, this perseverance and sense of responsibility allow art to move beyond fleeting moments and become part of history.
