Topic: Post-Impressionist


  
 Impressionistic and Post
Post Impressionism was not one of those smear-words such as Impressionism or Fauvism, invented by witty French journalists on first seeing the works of the artists concerned, words which caught the public imagination and were subsequently accepted and used by the artists themselves.
The Impressionists admired the new city for its modern appearance, and felt that it was an atmosphere ideal for painting.
Certainly many of the freedoms the Impressionists had fought for in the 1806 and 1870s in terms of paint application, colour, choice of subject and working procedure became part of the artist's stock in trade in the 1880.

 Post Impressionism
He exhibited with the impressionists in the 1870s, and in 1883 gave up his job to pursue painting full-time (this decision left his wife and 5 children with little money, so his wife left him to live with her mother).
Instead of focusing on these aspects of his new world, he decides to paint the natives in a paradisal climate, enjoying the traditions of their native culture and bathed in a hyper-colored atmosphere.
Unlike the Impressionists, he chose his colors almost arbitrarily, painting not what he sees but what he feels.

 art is dead - modern art - post-impressionism
In 1886, with the final decline of the Impressionists, the Post-Impressionists surfaced as the primary art movement in Paris.
Post-Impressionism was a diverse art movement that engulfed the European art community in the latter part of the 19th century.
Although the movement lasted less than a decade, the Impressionist school had indirectly challenged and inspired their successors (the Post-Impressionists) to venture into new artistic expression similar to the way they had.

Because of the style of painting he used during the last period of his life and the energetically expression of his work, van Gogh is called the father of the expressionism.
There is no question about impressionistic art anymore, because the artist did not paint the quick impression anymore.
Many drawings were made and it sometimes took the artist about a year to finish his painting.

The painters who became known as impressionists began exhibiting together in 1874.
In 1880 Monet decided, to the great annoyance of his fellow impressionists, to exhibit once again at the official Salon.
His comments criticized the artists for painting so loosely and neglecting to blend their brushstrokes carefully in order to achieve the polished effect that was then expected.

Although the Impressionists were respected as serious artists by the mid-1880s, a group of their followers believed that too many traditional aspects of painting were being ignored.
The advent of photography gave realistic painting an insurmountable obstacle, but, fortunately, the Impressionists and their successors succeeded in changing the ideas in painting to impressions rather than pictures.
These artists, many of whom began their careers exhibiting with the Impressionists, conducted a more systematic exploration of three-dimensional space and lines.

 POSTIMPRESSIONISM
After exhibiting with the Impressionists in 1886, Gauguin renounced “the abominable error of naturalism.” With the young painter Émile Bernard, Gauguin sought a simpler truth and purer aesthetic in art; turning away from the sophisticated, urban art world of Paris, he instead looked for inspiration in rural communities with more traditional values.
Cézanne painted in isolation at Aix-en-Provence in southern France; his solitude was matched by that of Paul Gauguin, who in 1891 took up residence in Tahiti, and of van Gogh, who painted in the countryside at Arles.
All of these painters except van Gogh were French, and most of them began as Impressionists; each of them abandoned the style, however, to form his own highly personal art.

 Art Periods: POSTIMPRESSIONISM in France
This highly individual art, which was to be greatly admired by the next generation of painters, laid the groundwork for the creation of cubism by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque.
It would be a mistake to view the postimpressionists as simply rejecting their impressionist heritage; rather, they accepted the revolutionary impact of impressionism and went on to explore new aesthetic ideas, many of which grew out of concepts implicit in impressionism.
Finally, the other-worldliness of the postimpressionist symbolists (see symbolism, art), such as Redon, together with the distorted lines of Art Nouveau in the works of Toulouse-Lautrec and other contemporaries, fostered a growing tendency toward abstract art that was to prove essential to nonfigurative developments in painting after 1910.

This movement, made up entirely by French artists, other than the exception of Vincent Van Gogh, was a reaction by the artists to the inherent limitations of the Impressionist style.
Roger Fry coined "Post-Impressionism" as the title of an exhibition at the Grafton Galleries, London, in 1910-1911: Manet and the Post-Impressionists.
Post-Impressionism, as implied by the name, came after the creation of the Impressionism.

By the late 1880's the Impressionists were seen as serious artists and their paintings were no longer regarded as crude and unfinished works as they once were.
All of these artists had accepted the Impressionist methods and never rejected the new and brighter palette, they didn't seek to undo the effects of Impressionism, rather they sought to carry it further, thus making this period of art history a later stage of Impressionism.
Many of the painters and their young followers were becoming dissatisfied with the limitations of the style and felt that too many traditional elements of picture making were being neglected.

The work, shown in the last Impressionist exhibit in 1886, is also considered to foreshadow abstract art.
A classic example of his painting during this period is The House of the Hanged Man, (1873-4).
In Mainstreams of Modern Art (Holt and Co., N.Y. 1959), John Canaday calls Cezanne "the most revolutionary painter since the dawn of the Renaissance." He writes that the artist's career was dedicated to making Impressionism "something solid and durable, like the art of the museums."

The nicest is an 11 3/8-by-5 1/8-inch oil of canvas, entitled "Baigneuse debout, s'essuyant les cheveux." This small female nude, which was possibly painted as early as 1869, is quite lovely and presages much of his later famous brushwork and it is estimated a bit conservatively at $700,000 to $900,000.
This exceeding vibrant and colorful work is one of the artist's series of depictions of actors and is appropriately estimated at $2,500,000 to $3,500,000.

This painting, the last sketch for the final picture that debuted in 1886 at the eighth and final Impressionist exhibition (today in the Art Institute of Chicago), depicts a landscape scene peopled with figures at leisure, a familiar subject of the Impressionists.

The development of tube paints facilitated the artists' outdoor (plein-air) approach to painting the subject directly before them (sur le motif) as opposed to 'reconstructing' it in the studio.
Experiments with color became schematized in the neo-Impressionism (or Pointillism or divisionism) of Seurat and his followers, who painted with myriad dots of pure color.
The term Post-Impressionism, however, is an extremely loose label applied primarily to Cézanne, Van Gogh, Gauguin, Lautrec and Seurat, but often used to describe other progressive artists after the great decade of Impressionism (1870-80), such as Matisse or Bonnard.

By the 1890s, the impressionists were accepted by critics and public alike as serious artists.
Forms were redefined in terms of planes composed of geometric shapes, color was used to express the emotion of the artist or a new reality, and perspective and viewpoint were manipulated to make balanced compositions.
Many artists who had started in impressionism in the 1870s, and many younger followers of the impressionists began to feel that the rigid insistence in impressionism on depicting a fleeting moment in time in terms of light and color neglected traditional aspects of painting such as psychological depth and formal structure.
