Overview and quickfacts
Neo-primitivism is a return to more traditional, simplistic art forms. This art style is often characterized by its use of bright colors, bold lines, and childlike subject matter. Neo-primitivism is a reaction against the more abstract and conceptual art of the late 20th century. This art style is often seen as a return to more traditional values and a simpler way of life.
The art style is also known as: Neo-luddism, neo-tribalism, neo-anarchism

Detailed Description
Neo-primitivism is a return to more traditional, often religious, values in art. It is a reaction to the perceived excesses of the modern world. Neo-primitivism is characterized by a focus on simplicity, traditional subject matter, and a return to more traditional media and techniques. Neo-primitivism has its roots in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Early examples include the work of Paul Gauguin and Henri Rousseau. Gauguin was influenced by the art of Tahiti and other Polynesian cultures, and his work often featured primitive subjects such as Tahitian women. Rousseau was similarly influenced by African and Native American art, and his work often featured jungle scenes. In the mid-20th century, neo-primitivism was taken up by the Abstract Expressionist movement. Artists such as Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko used primitive techniques and subject matter to express their own inner emotions. Neo-primitivism has also been a significant force in contemporary art. Artists such as Julie Mehretu and Wangechi Mutu use primitive imagery to explore issues of race, gender, and identity. Neo-primitivism has also been taken up by street artists and graffiti artists, who use its simple forms and bright colors to create bold, eye-catching art.
