FAUVISM Art Movement

Artists in the short-lived French art movement called Fauvism included Henri Matisse and André Derain, working from 1905-1910. The art is characterised by strong colors and fierce brushstrokes. The name les fauves (‘the wild beasts’) was coined by the critic Louis Vauxcelles when he saw the work of Henri Matisse and André Derain in an exhibition, the salon d’automne in Paris, in 1905.

The Tate Modern continues with much more discussion about Fauvism and its relationship to color.
