Download or read book The Fauves written by Nathalia Brodskaya and published by Parkstone International. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born at the dawn of the 20th century, Fauvism burst onto the artistic scene at the 1905 Salon d'Automne with great controversy by throwing bright, vibrant colours in the face of artistic convention. Fuelled by change, artists like Matisse, Derain, and Vlaminck searched for a new chromatic language by using colour out of its habitual context. Freed from the strict technique advocated by the École des Beaux-Arts, they used blocky colours as their main resource, saturating their stunning paintings. The author invites us to experience this vivid artistic evolution that, although encompassing a short amount of time, left its mark on the path to modernity.

Book Les Fauves

    Book Details:
  • Author : Russell T. Clement
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing USA
  • Release : 1994-05-25
  • ISBN : 0313369550
  • Pages : 720 pages

Download or read book Les Fauves written by Russell T. Clement and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1994-05-25 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive scholarly bibliography/research guide/sourcebook on the major French Fauve painters (Henri Matisse and Georges Braque are treated in separate Greenwood bio-bibliographies). It includes information on 3,120 books and articles as well as chronologies, biographical sketches, and exhibition lists. Each artist receives a primary and secondary bibliography with many annotated entries. Secondary bibliographies include details about each artists' life and career, relationships with other artists, work in various media, iconography, and more. Designed for art historians, art students, museum and gallery curators, and art lovers alike, this volume organizes the vast literature surrounding this fascinating, revolutionary, 20th-century art group. Genuinely new art is always challenging, sometimes even shocking to those unprepared for it. In 1905, the paintings of Matisse, Derain, Vlaminck and their friends shocked conservative museum-goers; hence, the eventual popularity of art critic Louis Vauxcelles's tag les fauves, or wild beasts by which these artists became known. Although it lasted only three or four years, Fauvism is recognized as the first artistic revolution of international consequence in the 20th century. It was based on the glorification of pure saturated colors and the free expression of primitivism. It was a dynamic sensualism; an equilibrium of passion and order, fire and austerity that could not last. By the end of 1908, Fauvism collapsed in the face of Cubism, which, moreover, several Fauve artists helped to form.

Book Primitivism in Modern Art

    Book Details:
  • Author : Robert Goldwater
  • Publisher : Harvard University Press
  • Release : 1986
  • ISBN : 9780674704909
  • Pages : 374 pages

Download or read book Primitivism in Modern Art written by Robert Goldwater and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This now classic study maps the profound effect of primitive art on modern, as well as the primitivizing strain in modern art itself. Robert Goldwater describes how and why works by primitive artists attracted modern painters and sculptors, and he delineates the differences between what is truly primitive or archaic and what intentionally embodies such elements. His analysis distinguishes the romanticism of Gauguin; an emotional primitivism exemplified by the Brücke and Blaue Reiter groups in Germany; the intellectual primitivism of Picasso and Modigliani; and a “primitivism of the subconscious” in Miró, Klee, and Dali. Two of Goldwater's related essays—“Judgments of Primitive Art, 1905–1965” and “Art History and Anthropology”—have been added for this new paperback edition.

Book Fauvism  Origins and Development

Download or read book Fauvism Origins and Development written by Marcel Giry and published by Olympic Marketing Corporation. This book was released on 1982 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Despite its having been the subject of several books, Fauvism remains a little known artistic movement. The author demonstrates that Fauvism constitutes a specific pictorial system for the expression of reality - a system that can be clearly defined not by any preliminary doctrine, but by dynamic action. He also explains how these paintings are not merely the result of a technique of expression using pure colors, but rather a lyrical translation of the artist's relationship to the universe - a new type of spatial awareness."--BOOK JACKET.

Few artists of his time regarded him as a great painter, but during the twentieth century, decades after his death, he ranked among the most popular of artists. His works reveal an intense and expressive energy that is unmistakable. Book jacket.
