Contemporary artists!
Jposh:
Well, since paintings count, I really happen to like the artist Alex Pardee.
(Though a Google image search didn't turn up anything of his that's absolutely spectacular)

Anything made within the last 100 years is considered contemporary.

Well more like 40 but yeah, painting is very much an important part of the art world.

If we are going to be pedants about it, it is actually anything made with in the last 63 years. Anything after WWII is considered contemporary art. It's literature that is contemporary if it was made in the last 100 years/After the 20th century.
Lines:
If you're getting picky, yes, it's post-WWII OR it's art that is being made presently. I have a feeling this will change in years to come to favor the latter, as WWII was a while ago.

I just came across this article today via Warren Ellis and... man I don't even know what to say about this.
