a circus tent, which has been painted so the audience knows that the painting is located at a circus.
foreground:
Middle ground:
Background:
the middleground consists of billboards, and people. These have been painted to show the colours and business at the circus.
The lines in this particular painting are very blurry and it adds to the fauvism way of painting. The artist has painted his lines un-even, not neat and very unorganized. For example, the circus tent. The lines in real life would have been straight, but here they are blurry and different lengths.
The colours are not contrasting. They aren't complementary either, and these are colours that you see everyday. (realistic). The colours have affected the mood and atmosphere in a way that when you see the painting you get a 'normal' vibe, so it doesn't give the usual 'fauvism' feeling.
just the sky, which has been painted with white swirls to add to the realistic affect of the painting.
Art Analysis 2
Texture
Space
Shape / Form
what attracted you to the painting in forms of shapes?
What has the artist done in terms of space?
The texture seems to be very soft and smooth, and you can see that it's an oil painting, by the swirls in the sky which would be very hard to do with other mediums.The artist has used the oil in a certain way which doesn't allow you to see the faces of these people, but the faces aren't necessary to understand what is happening.
What the artist has done, is he has crowded the painting at the front and in the middle, so your attention can be equally divided.
If the artist would have added objects in the background, it would have been distracting for the eye and we wouldn't have been able to see every aspect.
when I first looked at the picture I noticed the dress of the very last girl/woman. The dress is nearly triangular and I guess that the artist wanted to show the way people act and dress at such events.
medium: oil
Artist:Andre Derain
Title:Montagnes à Collioure
Date:1905
Medium:oil paint on canvas
As you can see in this picture Andre Derain uses lots of colors and strokes but he also includes lines in the background. In his painting and lots of color contrast between the blue and the yellow in the background. You cant really see the contrast between the trees, but they dont really contrast that much like the mountains.
This painting it was painted with oil paint on canvas.
Foreground:only shows one color whitch is green
Middle ground: lots of overlapping with the mountains and the trees
Background:Lots of color contrast
The artist is trying to express the nature in his art work and is tying to paint what he is looking at.
the trees are the main focus in this painting it uses lots of lines. And mostly different colors as well. And as well the center pierce of his art work.

"Colour was not given to us in order that we should imitate nature.
It was given to us so we express our own emotions."

Cites:
The most well known fauvism artists were Henri Matisse, Andre Derain and Maurice Vlaminck.
Les Fauves is French for "wild beasts."
Their preference for landscapes, carefree figures and lighthearted subject matter reflects their desire to create an art that would appeal primarily to the viewers’ senses.
