all of them reduce art to its "simple" essence, late Fellini is extraordinarily complex, using similar techniques to tell his story in novel ways, more like... Kandinsky. I'd say Stravinsky is the closest musical equivalent to those two. Diane Arbus may be the photographic member of this club.
I listened to "The Rite of Spring" the day after I saw "8 1/2" and they seemed so artistically similar, so truly revolutionary.
(BTW, did you find the link to Lilya 4-ever?)
Follow Ups:
There is always that combination of a very serious and a smile in Fellini's films, just like in Miro's paintings. You know I don't like Rothko...Yes, saw the link, thank you!
Tarkovsky. He takes a different mindset.
Stare at a painting of his and colors blend, disappear, reappear, and distort. It's kind of like a meditation. Art distilled to its core, color and form. No easy appeal to pre-formed emotions, i.e. a depiction of Madonna. No attempt to seduce the viewer with humor or cleverness, as the three aforementioned.
Unlike a lot of artists' works, Rothko's must really be seen in the original format. I never appreciated Warhol until I saw a collection of his works. The brilliant colors and perfection of the applications worked magic.
