  Henri Matisse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He was the only fauvist to develop his work to a balance between color and line, in flat compositions, without depth.
He painted in the Fauvist manner, becoming known as a leader of that movement.
The decline of the Fauvist movement after 1906 did nothing to affect the rise of Matisse; he had moved beyond them and many of his finest works were created between 1906 and 1917 when he was an active part of the great gathering of artistic talent in Montparnasse.

Characteristics of the Fauvist style, are use of bold, intense colors and a heavy use of line.
Among the great artist of the Fauvist period are Henri Matisse, Maurice de Vlaminck, Raoul Dufy, and Georges Rouault.
First formally exhibited in Paris in 1905, Fauvist paintings shocked visitors to the annual Salon d'Automne; one of these visitors was the critic Louis Vauxcelles, who, because of the violence of their works, dubbed the painters "Les Fauves" (Wild Beasts).

Les Fauves, literally “the wild beasts”, was originally a pejorative label applied to the group at their first exhibition in 1905, although the Fauvist style had been employed by the group's members for several years before that date.
Technically, the Fauvist use of colour derived from experiments made by Matisse at Saint-Tropez in the summer of 1904, working with the Neo-Impressionist painters who placed small dabs of pure colour side by side to achieve an even more optically correct image than that of the Impressionists.
Each of the Fauvist painters experimented with the principles of the style in his own way.

They were radical in their ignoring of the carefully graduating tone of colors and, instead, the Fauvists used small brush strokes of pure color.
The Fauvists believed that color was an absolutely emotional force and color was no longer used to describe, but actually created the subject matter.
In fact, Fauvist technique, the use of non-natural colors, and style of painting were one of the first avant-garde developments in European Art.

Inspired by the late impressionist works of Paul Gauguin and Vincent Van Gogh who pushed the boundaries with their bold color choices, the movement took this idea a step further to include simplified design.

In 1905, he became a member of the Fauvist (wild beast) group, along with Maurice de Vlaminck and Henri Matisse.
The group was so named because of the savage nature of the bold and unrealistic color used by the artists.

It was there he met André Derain, and the Fauvist movement was born.
As Monet had become the leader of the Impressionist movement, Matisse would soon take the lead with Fauvism, a style not unlike that of the impressionists, but where vivid colors are substituted for natural ones.
