Overview and quickfacts
Synthetism is an art style that emerged in the late 19th century, characterized by its use of bold, simplified forms and vivid colors. Synthetist artists sought to synthesize (hence the name) different artistic styles, often borrowing from Impressionism, Neo-Impressionism, and Pointillism. The style was most prominently used in painting, but was also applied to sculpture, graphic design, and other media.
The art style is also known as: Artificiality, ersatz, fake, falseness, inauthenticity, inorganic, plastic

Detailed Description
Synthetism is an art style that was developed in the late 19th century by a group of French artists. The style is characterized by bold, simplified forms and vivid colors. Synthetist artists sought to synthesize different elements into a single work of art, often using non-traditional materials such as newspaper clippings and photographs. Some of the most famous Synthetist artists include Paul Gauguin, Georges Seurat, and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Gauguin’s painting “The Yellow Christ” is a prime example of Synthetist art, with its flat, simplified forms and bold colors. Seurat’s painting “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte” is another well-known work in the style, which uses dots of color to create a sense of harmony and unity. While Synthetism was short-lived as an art movement, its influence can still be seen in many modern art styles.
