Paul Gauguin (1848 - 1903) was a French Post-Impressionist artist who was not well appreciated until after his death.
Gauguin is now recognized for his experimental use of color and synthetist style that were distinctly different from Impressionism.
He was an important figure in the Symbolist moment. His bold experimentation with color led directly to the Sythetist style of modern art. View Artist Collection

About Breton Girls Dancing
"Breton Girls Dancing" by Paul Gauguin is his very famous painting. Gauguin went to Pont-Aven in Brittany, a rugged land of fervently religious people far from the urban sophistication of Paris. There he forged a new style. He was at the center of a group of avant-garde artists who dedicated themselves to synthétisme, ordering and simplifying sensory data to its fundamentals. Gauguin's greatest innovation was his use of color, which he employed not for its ability to mimic nature but for its emotive qualities. He applied it in broad flat areas outlined with dark paint, which tended to flatten space and abstract form. This flattening of space and symbolic use of color would be important influences on early twentieth-century artists.About the Posters
