 Georges Seurat, 'La Parade' (1889) |

The Modern art/contemporary art movement of Pointillism succeeded the modern art movement of Impressionism. Pointillism was a natural progression from Impressionism as it was an extension of the idea that the artist could create a painting which represented an object/image as if you were viewing it at a glance.
The modern art/contemporary art movement of Pointillism was first coined as 'Pointillism' in the late 1880s. The great pioneers behind the modern art movement of Pointillism were the likes of: Georges Pierre Seurat, Paul Signac and Henri Edmond Cross.
There were few participants of Pointillism as the modern art movement was not taken at all seriously by art critics at the time.
The idea behind the modern art/contemporary art movement of pointillism was to paint in minuscule dots. The effect was a painting that looked dream like and fairytale like. |
