Post-Impressionism and Gauguin Leone/Belotti 5B Lucrezio Caro

REALISM…  The Truth IMPRESSIONISM…  Experiments with light, color, and atmosphere  Advances in technology…portable canvas & paints  Monet

Some review: Impressionism was influenced by Realism: scenes of contemporary life personal views and subjects; art for art’s sake avant garde attitude; the artist is separate from the mainstream

Some review: Impressionism was influenced by Realism: Impressionism was mainly concerned with: the play of light on surfaces intensity of colour (canvases primed white; no black used) informal compositions

Informal compositions were inspired by the wide-spread use of photography (thanks to the invention of roll film) and the resulting candid photos.

We call the next generation Post-Impressionists “Post” signifies after. The only thing this group of artists has in common is that they were influenced by the Impressionists’ use of intense colour. Their importance lies in their huge influence on the artwork of the 20 th century: Modernism.

The Vision after the Sermon, 1888 Paul Gauguin Distortion of space!! Distortion of colour!!

The Yellow Christ, 1889 Paul Gauguin The beginnings of abstraction! ! 500 years of tradition was thrown out the window!!

Self Portrait with Halo, 1889 Paul Gauguin Abstract forms, colours and symbolism!!

Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?, 1897 Paul Gauguin

Van Gogh and Gauguin… influenced “Expressionism” 20 th Century Western Art has its roots in the Post Impressionists

Post-Impressionism First art to concentrate on a psychological perception of reality Differs from other art in that it… Simplifies Omits Details Concentrates on the significance of form

PAUL GAUGUIN Vocal, flamboyant, recognized Wanted freedom…journeyed around the world in his search…wanted to return to the natural BUT with a modern expression Became recognized as a symbolist and a liberator of color

Gauguin continued... Gauguin’s art aims at five qualities: Ideational Symbolist Synthesis Subjective Decorative Strong, selfish personality

Gauguin continued… Originally a stockbroker with 5 children …but left his family to pursue art on his own in Paris. Then he Europe for Tahiti, and later ended up in the Marquesas Islands

GAUGUIN His style: inspiration from stained glass, Japanese prints, and cloisonne enameling PRIMITIVISM--art movement of late 19th century characterized by exaggerated body proportions, animal totems, geometric designs and stark contrasts He considered his style synthetism- Synthesized the subject with the artist’s Feeling, using line, shape, color, etc.

Gauguin had a multicultural awareness due to his extensive travel of the world. Gauguin gave up his successful life to escape civilization and live as a painter in Tahiti. Painting took over his life in Known for his arbitrary use of secondary and tertiary colors. He was a very arrogant man who thought quite highly of his own ability as a painter. Gauguin was also very inspired by the visual characteristics of Japanese printmaking. Gauguin, Self Portrait, Paul Gauguin POST-IMPRESSIONISM Paul Gauguin

Gauguin flattens his picture plane much like the Japanese printmakers that he often studied. This was painted while he was in Tahiti. While in the foreign land, he used exotic people to represent biblical characters. In this painting he uses a Tahitian woman to represent the Virgin Mary, and he uses a young Tahitian boy to represent the Young Christ. This painting clearly demonstrates Gauguin’s use of arbitrary intermediate and tertiary colors in his paintings. Paul Gauguin Ia Orana Maria (Hail Mary), POST-IMPRESSIONISM POST-IMPRESSIONISM Paul Gauguin

Self Portrait With Halo, Gauguin thought quite highly of himself as a creator of art. The concept as a ‘creator’ caused Gauguin to see himself as a prophet. He believed himself to be as important as a prophet because of his ability to see the world in a visionary way as well as his ability to depict that visionary world onto his canvases. This is a self portrait of Gauguin surrounded by biblical references. Notice the apples to the right of his face, and the snake that he holds in his hands. There are many biblical references to sin, while at the same time the painting alludes to Gauguin being divine. POST-IMPRESSIONISM Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin, Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?, POST-IMPRESSIONISM Gauguin’s painting reads from right to left in this case. ( just as Japanese writing is read from right to left ) Emphasis is built on the concept of the “Golden Mean” or “Rule of Thirds”. This image was done toward the end of Gauguin’s career and it is known as his Masterpiece. It was his largest work and was created in only a month. This work was completed just prior to his attempted suicide by way of an arsenic overdose. (He was saved when his body violently rejected the poison!) POST-IMPRESSIONISM Paul Gauguin
