	Fauvism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Les Fauves (French for wild beasts), a short-lived and loose grouping of early Modern artists, emphasized painterly qualities, and the use of deep color, over the representational values retained by Impressionism even with its focus on light and the moment.Critics also use the word Fauve to explain someone or an artist.
		One of the fundamentals of the Fauves was expressed in 1888 by Paul Gauguin to Paul Sérusier,
		In French, "Fauves" means "wild beasts".The painter Gustave Moreau was the movement's inspirational teacher, and a professor at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris who pushed his students to think outside of the lines of formality and to follow their visions.

	The Fauves
		The name 'Fauves' caught on, becoming a term of abuse - although it had not been intended as such - and the furore that followed made the artists famous.
		Fauve artists experimented with the relationship of colours to each other, applying pure, unblended colour straight from the tube so that colour mixing was achieved by the eye of the viewer and not on the palette.
		Fauve painting, standing as it did on the threshold of two centuries, unlocked the door between representation or pictorial illusion and abstraction or art for art's sake - "not everything, but the foundation of everything" as Matisse believed.

	American Fauves
		"Fauve Nude" is a pivotal work for Maurer as it reveals the artist's unequivocal abandonment of his earlier style of painting in the vein of William Merritt Chase and James Abbott McNeill Whistler for the expressive and primal syntax of Matisse.
		Considered one of the most significant works in the exhibition, it is a watershed painting by one of the first American artists to effect drastic change in his aesthetic as a result of head-on exposure to Matisse's art.
		Rice's interest in Fauve painter Andre Derain is exemplified in the work entitled "Ajaccio, Corse." Her passionate reaction to the Corsican countryside is reflected in the rhythmic form and brilliant, jewel-like patterning of color, which garnered her strong, critical acclaim by both the British and French press.

	ArtLex on Fauvism
		The name Fauves, French for "Wild Beasts," was given to artists adhering to this style because it was felt that they used intense colors in a violent, uncontrolled way.
		The leader of the Fauves was Henri Matisse (French, 1869-1954).
		Although more known as a pioneer of Cubism, Braque was exploring the Fauves' nonnaturalistic uses of color during the period that he and Picasso were making the first experiments in Cubism -- 1906-1910.

	WetCanvas! - How did the fauves transpose color?
		the fauves was a very diverse and short lived group of artists, defined by art critics and art historians rather than the artists themselves.
		the fauves benefited from the expansion in pigment chemistry in the latter half of the 19th century.
		my sense is that the fauves, and many other artists of the time, had rejected representation as a standard or starting point, and treated it instead as a kind of context for rhetoric and a source of symbolism.

		And their effort is not merely for didactic purpose alone, for most importantly the evidence, the theme, the impact of the Fauves is made tangible, is found on the walls: splendid work, rare, forgotten, famous, wonderful.
		The Fauves in all their variations were an enormous influence: most of all because once seen, the aspirant knew what could be done, and how it might best be done.
		A few Americans kept the Fauves' faith, instead made their own work that was no longer wild, but tamed by practice and by the times by a special vision or other influences.

		The Fauves ("Wild Beasts") were young creative revolutionaries in the art world and counted among their number Henri Matisse and such lesser known figures as Andre Derain and Maurice Vlaminck, all of whom admired van Gogh and Gauguin.

		USA Today (Magazine); 1/1/2000; BAILEY, W. The artist adapted the creative use of color and drawing exemplified by Henri Matisse and the Fauve movement, but added a heightened ambient light to achieve the brightness that became an integral element of his work.
		(The Fauve movement was typified by the works of Henri Matisse and characterized by vivid color, free treatment of form, and a resulting vibrant and decorative effect.) This painting is possibly Dufy's first attempt to utilize a style that attempted to show his "reality," rather than just the surface of a subject.
		Dufy did not exhibit with Matisse and his group of Fauves at that first show, but he was excited by their creative use of color and drawing.

	Wild beasts and colors
		From 1904, the Fauve artists, including Henri Matisse (1869-1954) with André Derain (1880-1954), Henri Manguin (1874-1949) and Maurice Vlaminck (1876-1958), began to portray familiar objects with “unfamiliar” colors.
		Moreover, the fragmented way that they were applied — in larger and smaller blocks — made the pictures seem sketchy, clumsy and unfinished to their contemporary audience.
		The subject matter of the Fauve painting is often traditional.

		Where the poignant, pop aspects of The Fauves have been beautifully and amply captured before, with "Archimedes' Crown", the lovely "Lightning Cabinet" or "Marble Arse" - and are certainly represented here with Leonard's touching " Caesar's Surrender" and Cox's melancholy "Man Lessons" - it's driving rock that preoccupies the band on this release.
		The Fauves are thus renowned as an unpredictable, hair-trigger live prospect.
		The Fauves achieve the desired precision of sound and performance, while maintaining their integrally suspicious, pessimistic views of rock 'n' roll, unchallenged heroes, manhood and, always, themselves.

		Almost as soon as it began, the Fauves (“wild beast”) movement was over, but their influence paved the way for abstract art.
		It was an exhibit of the Fauves work at the Los Angeles County Museum of art in 1989 that proved to be the epiphany for Ellenshaw, and it occurred during the time he was working on the film “Dick Tracy”.
		As a result, the Fauves’ influence is all over the unforgettable scenery and backgrounds of the movie.

	WetCanvas! - View Single Post - How did the fauves transpose color?
		So, if I understand you correctly, a way to accomplish shadow without concerning yourself with value is to shift 1 step on the colorwheel--but always in the direction of "cooler".
		You know, I bet that was the fauves did to some degree.
		Maybe not always just one step but I'm beginning to think changing temperature without changing value to create shadows may be at least one of the "secrets" of the fauve masters I've been searching for.

		The Fauves painted directly from nature as the Impressionists had before them, but their works were invested with a strong expressive reaction to the subjects they painted.
		The leader of the group was Henri Matisse, who had arrived at the Fauve style after careful, critical study of the masters of Postimpressionism Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh, and Georges Seurat.
		As always in Matisse's Fauve style, his painting is ruled by his intuitive sense of formal order.

		The Fauves studied Gauguin's color relations and discovered that they were beautiful even when not confined to definite patterns.
		Just as Botticelli had made his pictures seductive by rhythm of line, so the Fauves attempted to secure a decorative charm by the same means.

		Les Fauves (French for "wild beasts"), a short-lived movement of early Modernist art, emphasized paint itself and the use of deep color over the representational values retained by Impressionism, even with its focus on light and the moment.
		The mantra of the Fauves was a quote from Paul Gauguin to Paul Serusier[?] in 1888 to the effect that if the trees looked yellow to the artist then painted a bright yellow they must be.
		The name, which translates as "wild beasts," was given the group by an art critic following their 1905 seminal show in Paris.

	Les fauves brabançons
		Alors que les fauves français ont évolué depuis quelques années déjà vers d’autres modes d’expression, ce chroniqueur belge commence à s’intéresser à l’appellation, tout en lui gardant sa spécificité française.
		Nous serons sollicités tantôt par des fauves, tantôt par des néo-classiques, tantôt encore par des impressionnistes quelque peu logiciens, en passant par toutes les gammes intermédiaires de la peinture nouvelle, surtout celle qui fait fureur à Paris, de sorte que le pompiérisme néolâtre y exerce de sensibles ravages.
		Si l’on considère que les fauves brabançons sont un ensemble de peintres qui, en esprit, ont réagi contre la perte de vitesse de l’impressionnisme et sont surtout caractérisés par l’intensité des couleurs utilisées, on peut admettre que Fernand Verhaegen en fasse partie, l’adjectif « brabançon » neutralisant le contenu du nom » fauve ».
