Fauvism is an widely known art form from the 20th century which is characterized by its use of bright colors and stiff strokes. The name “Fauvism” comes from the phrase “les fauves” which translates to ‘wild beasts’ as fauvism was seen as unshackled and instinctive. This movement has had its height during 1905-1908 where remarkable development in the field of art was made. Such artists who took a leading role in Fauvism are Andre Derain, Raoul Duffy, and their foremost leader Henri Matisse. Matisse uniquely painted wild and deep colors along with use of basic shapes which marked a new beginning of expressive colors in comparison to muted colors used previously. His graduates Derain and Duffy also dipped their paint brushes in this new color palette which lead to birth of Fauvism and vibrant move so called Fauvism. As we can see, color and usage of paint was not new in Matisse and his students, hence they played a major leap in development of art and completely revised the accurate way of creating a painting leading to new movement know as Fauvism.
