Description
This volume recounts the formation and dissolution of the Fauve art movement; the movement as such lasted only a few years, 1904-1908. Fauvism is the style of les Fauves (French for "the wild beasts"), a short-lived and loose group of early twentieth-century artists whose works emphasized painterly qualities and strong color over the representational or realistic values retained by Impressionism. The leaders of the movement were Henri Matisse and André Derain. The author also includes information on its relation to other movements of the time, such as post-Impressionism and Cubism and its place in the artistic development of each of its practitioner.
