Your Favorite Instagram Posts of 2019

The end of the year is the best moment to gather your tribe, share memories and make plans for a better future… it was a real pleasure to share our passion of art with you again on 2019: for Beautiful Bizarre Magazine it was a very important year, with the second year of our Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize, which met with great success and helped us discover even more incredible new talents! And guess what? The Prize will be back in 2020, and we will make it even more fabulous…

2019 was also, unfortunately, a bad year for the freedom of art, and we have faced many censorships from social medias. But we’re hoping that, thanks to your many voices, we would be able to fight back to protect the artists and our bodies from narrow-mindedness. We are stronger together, and we can make this world a place where all of us can express their creativity, identity and liberty.

Prudishness is not the future and the fact that the Beautiful Bizarre Magazine Instagram account has welcomed an impressive amount of new followers in the last 12 months genuinely proves it! We are truly grateful for your inspiring comments, likes, and shares. Once again, thank you for your loyalty and support, you are our tribe!

As a gift, we compiled your favorite Instagram posts of 2019 so that we can all enjoy these memories together! Counting down the top 20 to the number 1 post… here we go!

Beauty from the past: there are so many wild details in "Witches going to their Sabbath"! Luis Ricardo Falero (1851-1895) was certainly a master of composition and dark story-telling… ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #beautifulbizarre #luisricardofalero #painting #fineart #classicart #nudeart #historyofart #witches #darkart #darksurrealism #fantasy #art
