It's also no wonder that Fred Kelemen likes the paintings of Nikolai Makarov, because both of their works somehow create the same kind of feelings. (I don't know how to call these feelings.)

5.MARK ROTHKO (1903-1970)
He committed suicide.
I think Mark Rothko and Fred Kelemen at least share something in common. Their works look very simple, but maybe very subtle.

--As for my own choice in this poll, I choose Nikolai Makarov. His paintings give a haunting feeling.

Talking about simplicity in Fred Kelemen's films reminds me of what Kelemen once said. He said that he was impressed with the story of Michelangelo prooving hist talent by just drawing a perfect circle, instead of creating elaborate artworks.
I want to add that Kim Ki-duk also like the paintings of Egon Schiele.
Impressive examples you have here! This shows how Kelemen really has a painter's eye.
Yes, Kelemen really has a painter’s eye. And it shows a lot in his film KALYI (1993), which is visually striking. The paintings of Nikolai Makarov remind me of the blurring quality of FATE (1994). The landscapes in Anselm Kiefer’s paintings remind me of the landscapes in FROST (1997).
Kelemen also has a great ear for music. The music in KALYI (1993) is marvelous. He also said in the book FILMVIRUS 2 that he likes
