Who were the Fauves? Fauvism was a French art movement, led
by Henri Matisse, spanning from 1869-1954.
Fauves is French for “Wild Beasts”. This name was used because the artists used intense, almost violent colors in an unnatural way.

Influences In the early 1900s there were several major
exhibitions in Paris of Post Impressionist artwork. These included the works of Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh, and Paul Cezanne and were radically different from previous work displayed.
They had loose brush strokes and bright, free use of color. These exhibitions inspired many artists who were looking to liberate their own style.

“Wild Beasts” The Fauves took the free use of color even
further by using arbitrary and unnatural colors. They might paint a sky bright red or a person’s face green.
Complementary or Analogous color schemes were often used.
Colors were chosen for expressive purposes, not based on realism.

The Still Life in Art A picture of inanimate objects. Common still life subjects
include vessels, food, flowers, books, clothing.
A still life painting which reminds us of life's fleeting qualities is called a vanitas.
This genre flourished particularly among Dutch painters of the seventeenth century.
