How Seurat's pointillism represent the period of art? I just thought that because he has developed this type of paint (and thus the foundation of this period), it represents this period.
nothing more about it?
Neo-Impressionism
Neo-Impressionism is a term invented by the French art critic Fedlix Fednedon in 1887 [1] to characterize the movement of the late 19th century art directed by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, who first exhibited their work in 1884 to exhibition of the Society of Independent Artists in Paris. term Fednedon stressed roots of recent developments in the field of visual arts in impressionism, but he offered at the same time a new reading of artistic means such as color and line based on the practice of Seurat and Signac and its theoretical background in the writings of Chevreul and Charles Blanc.
Pointillism is not a period, but a style. answer the question, said he created his works by painting small dots of color close, causing the optical mixture of colors. which is also the definition of pointillism.
