The early 20th-century movement called FAUVISM started in 1905 in France and lasted for just a couple of years. The best-known fauvist art was created by three amazing artists: Henri Matisse, Andre Derain, and Maurice de Vlaminck.
The movement was short-lived but had a huge impact on the art of the 20th century. So let's find out why it's so special!

Great video! I have one small issue though, at 1:40 you say “fauvists ditched the realistic values” - I think in painting, “value” usually refers to how light or dark a colour is. In that sense I think the fauvists often did stick with realistic values, which is how they got away with so many fantastical colour combinations. Our eye can recognize the shape of a building or a face because of how the different values of the highlights and shadows are represented accurately even when the colours aren’t strictly accurate. I think there are lots of fauvists paintings where, if you photographed them in black and white, you’d see that the values are actually pretty realistic. If the fauvists had completely ditched realistic light & dark along with colour, their subjects would be pretty much unrecognizable! This is totally just my interpretation, I could be wrong! Anyway, thanks for making a great video, I love fauvism! You can really see how these painters have had a huge impact on art even to this day.

Very interesting perspective, thank you for sharing. Indeed, it was short-lived but had a huge impact over many art styles. Yet, it's not as widely known as some other movements, so hopefully we've done some justice to it. ☺️

I think in this case the speaker was referring to fidelity to realistic colors as a value, not the term used to describe a quality of pigment.

@lukegehring5305 2 жыл бұрын

From my own experience I wonder if in all instances the artist was making colors up. It has been said of my colors "they are really weird, but they work!" They seem weird because the viewer doesn't see the world that way, but it works because I do. If I paint a road purple or blue, it is because in a certain light it appears that way to me, but others see only black.

I am a photographer and in anything that seems only black or gray actually has a dominant hue of some color in it. So what seems to you as true may just be that, but a bit more desarurated

In a way we are all fauvists wheather we practice art professionally or not. We as humans colour everything we see through our eyes and more importantly through our minds that really see. And each one sees uniquely through our own colours of experience and personality. Fauvists we are. What say.

Today , I appreciated 8 more Fauvist paintings( also recommended 😁 ) on top of your recommended works: Henri Matisse : < The Woman with the Hat, 1905> , , André Derain: , < Big Ben, 1906> , Maurice de Vlaminck: < Restaurant de la Machine à Bougival, around 1905 > , Do you think I have good taste in wild beasts?🤔 Well, I am not in a position to please you by commenting on any of them.. I am a novice appreciator , you know.. I'll come back equipped with more extensive knowledge some day or other.😎 I also enjoyed this video very much. Thanks.

@CuriousMuse 2 жыл бұрын

They are quite different in many ways: countries where artists were from, ideas they expressed on the canvas etc. Check out our video on Expressionism and you will see that.

@ajmosutra7667 2 жыл бұрын

I think expresionism is more focused on brush strokes and well.. expression as a whole. May it be in color, but also in other painting techinques. But, fauvism mostly focuses on showing values of light in color and its own inherent light values. Fauvism is more of an evolution on impressionism that took on a new spin, and expressionism focuses on the subject(artist)s intention, and not the object of painting. So any techniques used in expressionism are in purpose of representing and emphasizing the subjects vision of the object, and the fouvists is an exploration of the object by the subjects knowledge of techniques

What, is pop art came from this?

@CuriousMuse Жыл бұрын

Not really as there’s ~50 years between these movements. With roots in Neo-Dada and other movements that questioned the very definition of “art” itself, Pop Art was birthed in the United Kingdom in the 1950s amidst a postwar socio-political climate where artists turned toward celebrating commonplace objects and elevating the everyday to the level of fine art.

Fauvism does use bright color as it's point of expression and the artist aren't reluctant that way. However, to me in most cases I find Fauvism ( a lazy movement) these artist are lacking study and much talent. Matisse, I like his stuff to a degree, and Kandinsky but they are nothing like post impressionist or impressionist imo, latter leading to abstract expressionism (Pollack and Rothko) and pop art (Warhol, Basquiat, Herring, etc) which to me almost altogether is college art. Never the less your taste is your taste. Even Chagall and then Surrealism doesn't wet my palette.

Well, most of the avantgarde(ahead of its time, pioneers) in modern art whom invented the movemebts like impressionism or ready made(conceptual art) were very controversial and deliberately opposed the rules of the exhibition and the rules of the academia.
