POST-IMPRESSIONISM Art movement
Beginnings Post-Impressionism is a predominantly French art movement that developed roughly between 1886 and 1905. Post-Impressionism emerged as a reaction against Impressionists' concern for the naturalistic depiction of light and colour. Due to its broad emphasis on abstract qualities or symbolic content, Post-Impressionism encompasses Neo-Impressionism, Symbolism, Cloisonnism, Pont-Aven School, and Synthetism, along with some later Impressionists' work.
Basic characteristics Post-Impressionist artists were not in agreement concerning a cohesive movement. Yet, the abstract concerns of harmony and structural arrangement, in the work of all these artists, took precedence over naturalism. Artists such as Seurat adopted a meticulously scientific approach to colour and composition.
Main Post-Impressionists Paul C zanne, Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh, Georges Seurat.
