On this day, 78 years ago, on January 14, 1947 (December 23, 1946 in the lunar calendar), Bonar, a painter of the abstract art school, passed away. Bonnard's masterpiece "Apricot Tree in Blooming"(1947) On January 14, 1947, French painter Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947) died at the age of 80. He is the last ray of impressionism. I have always loved Impressionism, and I have found a long-lost sense of closeness. He formed a group with Maurice Denis, Paul Seryssier and Edward Viar, known as the "Nabis"(the Hebrew prophets). This school of painting contributed to the birth of a new modern decoration style, which was very important for the emergence of Art Nouveau in the 1920s. Japan's Ukiyo-e has a great influence on this "authentic Japanese Nabi". The evolution of Bonnard's style is the transition from Impressionism to colorful abstract art. Pierre Bonnar¡¤cl (1867-1947) was a famous painter of the Nabi School in France in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. When he studied art in Paris when he was young, he was deeply influenced by Gauguin and Japanese Ukiyo-e. He also inherited the rich colors and lively practical spirit of Impressionism, further combining the objectivity of Impressionism with the basic propositions of symbolism on cultural memory and emotion. When the vigorous Impressionists gradually disappeared on the painting stage, their paintings and painting styles continued to exert influence and role to varying degrees and in different fields, writing a glorious chapter for world art in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Nabi faction is one of the painting schools directly influenced by it. His main contribution lies in comprehensively exploring and developing the styles of previous masters, including Gauguin, Redon and Cézanne, and in particular focusing on Gauguin's theory and practice of comprehensiveness. Due to his birth in the upper class of society, Bonar's education and life can be described as smooth sailing. When he was in his teens, he was sent to a famous boarding school. He has excellent academic performance and is very interested in painting, and has studied at the École des Arts de Julion in Paris for a short period of time. Like Cézanne and Matisse's fathers, Bonar's father also hoped that his son could study law and become a public official. Therefore, Bonar entered the Droy School of Law in 1886 and passed the bar exam in 1888. However, he failed in the public office examination. In this way, his desire to learn painting could be realized. Bonar's unique painting technique was not directly imitating a certain scene in life, but deciding the prerequisite for a painting based on memory and sketches. theme. The human body he painted combines the composition elements of Japanese Ukiyo-e with the Degas-style bathing girl pattern. Most of the human body is glowing and green under the illumination of the backlight. The screens, interlinings, mirrors and projections in the painting are either colorful or brilliant, or dark and out of the ordinary. The loess tones and cold purple tones presented by the human body are more and more visible in the contrast of the projection. The outline is clearly defined and is particularly mysterious. Bonar's landscape oil paintings are famous for their unique charm of colors. He was not particular about subject matter. In his early days, he was influenced by some stylized prints, posters and illustrations, with traces of stage art and traditional pastoral composition patterns. Later, his landscapes gradually eliminated these artificial factors and began to create based on purely self-centered preferences for color. Most of the colors in Bonnard's paintings are painted repeatedly on the canvas with trivial brushstrokes, making people seem chaotic and without a single piece of pure color. It is precisely because of this gorgeous multi-monthly color effect that the contrast and music of the colors are brought to the extreme, which made later color painters marvel and can only look forward to it.
