About Boats At Port In Collioure (Barques au port de Collioure) Andre Derain Fauve Art Painting
The spectacular Barques au port de Collioure presents the pinnacle of Derain's Fauve style. In early July 1905, Derain joined Matisse in Collioure, a coastal town on the Spanish border, where both artists spent the next two months working side by side. Shortly after Derain's arrival, he wrote in a letter to Vlaminck, marveling at the brilliant colors of the sundrenched coastal towns: "Above all, the light, a blond light, a golden hue that suppresses the shadows." While in Collioure, Derain's preoccupation with light and color of the Mediterranean freed his palette, leading him to explore a new purified form of painting where strongly contrasting areas of colour came to achieve new prominence. When Derain arrived in Collioure, Matisse, under the influence of Signac and Cross, was painting in brilliant, intense tones in a framework of mosaic-like short brushstrokes.About the Art Prints
