I need to make this 30% oral presentation about a painter or visual artist, can be of any kind, year, known or not!

Picasso, Dali, DaVinci and all those artist are already taken..

If you have an idea about who i could talk about, that would be cool!

Just talk about Banksy, it might be the only presentation that doesn't completely suck balls.

Banksy. He is a good artist, known world wide, clever, and has changed street art and is the only street artist that is protected instead of painted over... just a thought

Masaccio, talk about how he was the first to use linear perspective. "The Holy Trinity" is the most important painting of all time, fuck the mona lisa, its just a painting of a beautiful women, sure its an amazing painting, but "the Holy Trinity" takes the fucking cake. Imagine seeing that shit for the first time, it was like looking into another world, and that world was directing you, the viewer. People traveled the world to see this shit. You could easily talk about that.

Steven Wiltshire.  Dude can look at a city once and draw it perfectly from memory.

"In May 2005 Stephen produced his longest ever panoramic memory drawing of Tokyo on a 32.8-foot-long (10.0 m) canvas within seven days following a helicopter ride over the city. Since then he has drawn Rome, Hong Kong, Frankfurt, Madrid,[7] Dubai,[8][9] Jerusalem[10][11] and London[12][13] on giant canvasses. When Wiltshire took the helicopter ride over Rome, he drew it in such great detail that he drew the exact number of columns in the Pantheon.[14]"

Do it on someone young who'll potentially inspire something in the people who will listen to your presentation.

Do it on Lucien Smith

Or more unique and street oriented, JR

False, Shepard Fairey is arguably just as well known and you don't see his shit being painted over either, although granted he is more commercialized instead of being elusive like banksy is.
