Post-Impressionism Chapter 20, Part 3/3 Rebekah Scoggins Art Appreciation March 19, 2013
Post-Impressionism Trend in painting starting about 1885 Came to feel that the Impressionists were neglecting too many of their traditional elements of picture making in their attempts to capture momentary sensations of light and color Did not share a singular style Much more interested in examining the properties and expressive qualities of line, pattern, form, and color. Some felt that Impressionism’s focus on sketchy immediacy had sacrificed solidity of form and composition. Others felt that Impressionism’s emphasis on the objective observation did not leave enough room for personal expression or spiritual content.
