Henri Matisse: FENETRE À COLLIOURE. 2n ESO

A 2n d'ESO hem estat treballant el color. Com a exercici pràctic hem volgut reproduir l'obra d'Henri Matisse "Fenêtre à Collioure" utilitzant ceres. Matisse fou un dels creadors del Fauvisme, un moviment pictòric expressionista nascut a principis del segle XX a França. Els Fauvistes ("fauve" vol dir bèstia salvatge en francès) utilitzaven la força del color per donar expressivitat a les seves pintures.

Aquí podeu veure el resultat del treball dels nois i noies de 2n d'ESO.  Felicitats per la feina feta!

The main activity we've done is painting an artwork as André Derain did. Derain (1880-1954) was a French painter. He was one of the founding fathers of Fauvism, and one of its wildest practitioners. Influenced by Van Gogh in 1904 he felt that the impressionists had disintegrated their work into dots excessively. Instead, he chose to use wide, choppy brush strokes of pure color. In 1905, he worked with Matisse to bring the technique to maturity. He painted "Boats at Collioure's harbour" in 1905.

And now... our creations!
