"neo-impressionism"の定義と意味

What is "Neo-Impressionism"?

Neo-Impressionism was an art movement that began in France in the late 19th century, inspired by Impressionism. Started by artists like Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, Neo-Impressionism focused on a more structured approach to color and light. Instead of using soft and quick brushstrokes, artists used small, individual dots or strokes of color, a technique known as Pointillism. This method aimed to create a more accurate and scientific understanding of color mixing and light. Neo-Impressionists were interested in how colors and light work together, aiming to achieve a more vivid and clear effect in their work while still reflecting the emotions of everyday scenes.
