LOOK:

Henri Matisse is considered one of the founders of fauvism (pronounced “FO-vizum”). He was called a fauve (French for “wild beast”) because of his use of bold, bright colors and fierce brushwork. The Australian painter, John Russell, had introduced Matisse to the Impressionists, color theory, and the work of Russell’s friend, Vincent Van Gogh – and Matisse took away a new sense of liberty to experiment with color and composition.

The driving idea was to move away from the longstanding convention of mimicking or reproducing the colors and forms of the world as they appear to the eye alone (after all, the new technology of photography was doing that quite well). And instead, the “fauves” sought to create paintings pervaded by the painter’s emotional response to the world. This wasn’t so much a shift away from “realism” as a shift in what the painter was being “realistic” about: the fauvists sought to present not merely a realistic image of a given scene, but rather a realistic image of the painter’s emotional interaction with that scene. In other words, for Matisse, a work of art is an act of communication, at once expressing and evoking an emotional, thoughtful reaction.
