PAUL CÉZANNE
1839–1906
Paul Cézanne was a French artist and Post-Impressionist painter whose work was critical in the transition from the 19th-century conception of artistic endeavor to a modern and radically different world of art that emerged full bore in the 20th century. Cézanne and the other Post-Impressionist painters strongly influenced the early-20th-century’s new artistic movements of Cubism and Fauvism. Henri Matisse (1869–1954), who is associated with Fauvism, and Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), co-founder of the Cubist movement, are said to have claimed that Cézanne is the father of us all
—the father of modern art.
One of the most influential artists in the history of 20th-century painting, Cézanne successfully melded the structural impulse of Classicism with the color and emotion of Romanticism, inspiring the generations of artists who followed him to see and portray the world in a more abstract manner. After a brief and unsuccessful sojourn with the Impressionist movement, Cézanne moved away from the realistic portrayal of nature associated with Impressionism. The Impressionists were so named because they strove to capture the fleeting impression of a scene as the forces of nature—light, wind, and so forth—quickly changed its appearance.
Post-Impression—a term selected by the art critic and artist Roger Fry (1866–1934)
