ABOUT
HISTORY
ARTISTS
CONCLUSION
ABOUT POST IMPRESSIONISM The Post Impressionist period came when several
former Impressionist painters became dissatisfied with the movements insistence on light and color.
The post-Impressionists aspired to find more depth in the roles of color, form and solidity in painting.
The term post-impressionism is used to denote the
effort at self-expression, emotion, mood and rather than representation of object.

The style of the work, developing a new method of paint application or viewing the piece from multiple angles, was more important than subject matter.
Characteristics:-see brushstrokes-personally expressive -style over fidelity -no fleeting light or moment (multiple moments or angles) -bright palette-moved away from journalistic detail of earlier periods -art is for the artist’s sake

AUGUSTE RODIN (1840 – 1917)
Generally considered the progenitor of modern sculptor.
Departing with centuries of tradition, he turned away from the idealism of the Greeks, and the decorative beauty of the Baroque and neo-Baroque movements.
His sculpture emphasized the individual and the concreteness of flesh, and suggested emotion through detailed, textured surfaces, and the interplay of light and shadow.

CONCLUSION The transformed contrasting short brushstrokes of
Impressionism into curving, vibrant lines of color, exaggerated even beyond Impressionist brilliance, that convey emotionally charged and ecstatic responses to the natural landscape. In general, Post-Impressionism led away from a naturalistic approach and toward the two major movements of early 20th-century art that superseded Cubism and Fauvism, which sought to evoke emotion through color and line.
