What is the Fauvist vision?

The Fauvist vision likely refers to Fauvism, a movement within painting that gained popularity in France in the early twentieth century (although its practitioners were exploring 19th century-era scientific color theories). Bold, non-naturalistic colors were used, often applied directly from the tubes of paint, and the work was abstract in appearance. André Derain and Henri Matisse are among the artists associated with Fauvism. Find a collection of Fauvist paintings on 1stDibs.
