Post-Impressionism was a very brief period in European art at the very end of the 19th century, a time of bold exploration and unexpected discoveries in painting that soon led to the emergence of avant-garde art in the early 20th century. The heroes of this vibrant era were talented individuals who opened up new horizons for the visual arts. Collectively and individually, they defined the direction of all 20th-century art. The Post-Impressionists were doomed to the fate of unrecognized exiles and hermits, as they created daring, innovative paintings far removed from the public's usual demands. Misunderstood, they died in poverty and oblivion, only to later become idols for millions of their admirers.
The unpredictable and colorful art of Post-Impressionism left many mysteries and questions that this book will help answer.
After reading it, you will learn:
- why Paul Cézanne disliked painting portraits;
- Where did Paul Gauguin find his lost paradise?
- What country did Vincent van Gogh dream of visiting?
- Why do women in Henri Toulouse-Lautrec's paintings almost always have red hair?
- Why did the Post-Impressionists love Brittany and Provence?
- How did Georges Seurat and Paul Signac use dots to create their paintings?
- Which avant-garde artists of the early 20th century were influenced by the Post-Impressionists?
