	Les Nabis: Definition and Links by Encyclopedian.com
		In 1888-89, Les Nabis originated as a rebellious group of young student artists who banded together at the Académie Julian in Paris, France.
		Nabis artists are noted for the variety of media in which they worked.
		Les Nabis regarded themselves as initiates, using a private vocabulary: They called a studio egasterium, and used to end their letters with the initials E.T.P.M.V. et M.P., which stood for "En ta paume, mon verba et ma paume" ("In the palm of your hand, my word and my palm.")

	Les Nabis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Les Nabis originated as a rebellious group of young student artists who banded together at Académie Julian in Paris, France.
		Les Nabis regarded themselves as initiates, and used a private vocabulary.
		Among the artists who considered themselves Nabis was Maurice Denis, whose journalism put the aims of the group in the eye of a progressive audience, and whose definition of painting — "a flat surface covered with colors assembled in a certain order" — expressed the Nabis approach.

		Perhaps most significantly, however, the new commission was to be a first opportunity for Vuillard and the Nabis to demonstrate to an exhibition audience their ability to complement and enhance architecturally defined spaces and to show what the function of decoration in relation to architecture should be.
		Le pot de grès is also seen hanging in the dining room of the rue Saint-Florentin apartment in Misia et Vallotton (1898, oil on board, William Kelly Simpson, New York); reproduced in Groom 1993, p.
		The relative homogeneity of the Nabis model rooms is exceptional in the context of Bing's exhibition, where stylistic variety and overall heterogeneity of artistic expression were the rule.

		A son retour à Paris, Sérusier montre le talisman à ses camarades de l'Académie Julian - Bonnard, Denis, Ibels et Ranson - et de l'école des Beaux-arts - Vuillard, Roussel et Piot.
		Cette nouvelle manière de penser s'oppose alors à tous les naturalismes et s'exprime par une volonté de simplification et de synthèse qui sera qualifiée de symboliste.
		Tous se retrouvent le samedi après-midi dans l'atelier de Paul Ranson, 25 boulevard du Montparnasse : c'est le " temple " Partageant bonne humeur et camaraderie, ils mêlent amitié, formules ésotériques et blagues d'artistes, à une vraie modestie et recherche authentique du bien et du beau.

	Le Mouvement FAUVE
		Le fauvisme a été la réunion d'artistes ayant mêmes admirations, mêmes goûts, et que les attaques de la critique vont encore rapprocher.
		Le fauvisme est né de la réunion de tempéraments s'affirmant pendant quelques années dans une attitude artistique sinon identique, du moins très proche.
		Le passage d'une grande partie des peintres fauves dans son atelier et le bénéfice de son enseignement intelligent et libéral ne suffisent certes pas à expliquer son influence ; mais, comme elle se retrouve même chez ceux qui n'ont pas été ses élèves, chez Derain par exemple, il est difficile de la mettre en doute.

		Ce nom faisait d'eux des initiés, les membres d'une sorte de confrérie vouée à la recherche des sources pures de l'art, de la sensation primitive, de l'émotion sincère.
		Pour les Nabis, peindre un symbole ou une allégorie, c'est traduire une sensation en image, lui donner un équivalent plastique et coloré.

	Les Nabis - Wikipedia
		Artiştii Nabis sunt notabili pentru versatilitatea mediilor şi tehnicilor artistice folosite.
		Folosirea cuvântului Nabi din ebraică, desemnând profet, nu este întâmplătoare întrucât Les Nabis se considerau ei înşişi iniţiaţi şi deci deschizători de noi drumuri (ceea ce au şi fost, într-un fel).
		O altă influenţă majoră asupra Les Nabis a fost exercitată de mişcarea artistică engleză Arts and Crafts, care i-a făcut pe "profeţi" să adere la alte forme ale artei, aşa cum au fost: tipăriturile, ilustraţia de cărţi, designul de afişe, textile şi designul scenic.

		Il rapprocha le lointain par l’utilisation de jumelles et de longues vues, ce qui en même temps aplatissait l’image et permettait par la suite le renforcement de la force non-illusionniste de ses tableaux.

		He joined in the early group ventures such as printmaking, puppet plays and theatre design, but he was never involved with the more esoteric Symbolist aspirations of some of the group’s leading members.
		With Edouard Vuillard and Maurice Denis, he was quick to attract public attention, the nature of his work earning him the sobriquet ‘le Nabis journaliste’.
		Ibels’ works were bold and expressively graphic, typical of the artists of these movements in that their work included not only fine art, but early forms of graphic design and advertising as well, as viewed in lithographs and posters for theaters and cabarets, and book illustrations (Gauguin, Utrillo, and Ibels).

		Some of Pierre Bonnard's most notable paintings include 'Morning in Paris', 'View of Le Cannet', 'The Seine', 'Ice Palace', 'Nude Washing Feet in Bathtub', 'Misia' and 'The Breakfast Room'.
		Pierre Bonnard was, together with his friend Edouard Vuillard, one of the founding members of the art group Les Nabis (The Prophets).
		It is very difficult to classify Pierre Bonnard under one of the artistic styles: although he was a member of Les Nabis, which mainly focused on Post-Impressionism, Bonnard kept faithful to his own, unique painting style.
