ART HISTORY

BY: DELANEY BEAUDOIN

By abandoning all these rules and expectations of what art was supposed to be, Fauvist and other Post-Impressionist artists could change the way colour was used in a piece , the way they interpret subject matter and where intuition, thoughts and emotions were valued.

Fauvist artists were called "the fauves", French for "wild beasts", a term of derision used to indicate their apparent lack of discipline.

FAUVISM? MORE LIKE FAB-VISM.

André Derain, 1906, Charing Cross Bridge

The fauvist movement drew ideas and concepts from predecessor movements and artists like Expressionism and Post-Impressionism; and Vincent Van Gogh or Paul Cézanne, which experimented with different styles like paint application, subject matter and use of expressive lines; as well as symbolism which emphasises the artist’s internal vision and feelings.
