Modern Art

Definition of Modern Art as it relates to Art, Art Museums, Art Collections

Fauvism is an avant-garde art movement that originated in France at the turn of the 20th century. The term "Fauves," meaning "wild beasts," was coined by critic Louis Vauxcelles to describe the bold and expressive use of color and brushwork by artists such as Henri Matisse, André Derain, and Maurice de Vlaminck. Fauvist paintings are characterized by their vivid, non-naturalistic hues and simplified forms, often arranged in striking, unconventional compositions. The movement rejected the traditional values of harmony and perspective, instead emphasizing the emotional and symbolic power of color. While Fauvism was a relatively short-lived movement, its influence can be seen in many subsequent art movements, including Expressionism and Abstract Art. Today, works by Fauvist artists can be found in major art museums and collections around the world, including the Musée d'Orsay in Paris and the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
