 Fauvism

Link to presentation: Media Arts Mid Term - Google Slides

Fauvism was inspired by the Post-Impressionist movement. The art included bold colors, non-naturalistic depictions, and textured brushwork. The art was very EXPRESSIVE!! The art gave any object, person, or landscape new colors that people were not used to seeing. It brought many new shapes to objects.

Fauvism today is still in relation to Fauvism art in the 20th century, An artist that I found interesting is Tim Fowler. The Lauren Bacall that Tim painted with oils, varnish, acrylic, spray paint and gloss may not exactly be the materials that 20th century artists used, but the end result is a revolutionary one. This painting looks like Henri Matisse- Madame Matisse. (The green line)
