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.

<START OF TRANSMISSION>
1. Synthetism was a late 19th-century art movement that was part of the Post-Impressionist movement. 2. Synthetism was developed by Paul Gauguin and Emile Bernard. 3. The goal of Synthetism was to synthesize two or more elements into a single image. 4. Synthetism was influenced by Impressionism, Neo-Impressionism, and Japanese woodblock prints. 5. Synthetist artists sought to express emotions and ideas rather than to simply record an image. 6. To achieve this, they often used bold colors and simplified forms. 7. Synthetism was short-lived, lasting from about 1886 to 1890. 8. During this time, Gauguin and Bernard were the only artists associated with the movement. 9. In 1890, Gauguin left France for Tahiti, where he continued to develop his Synthetist style. 10. Synthetism had a significant influence on the development of 20th-century art, particularly on the Fauves and Cubists. 11. Synthetism is sometimes considered to be a precursor to Abstract art. 12. Gauguin's Synthetist style is characterized by flat, two-dimensional surfaces, bold colors, and simplified forms. 13. Bernard's Synthetist style is characterized by more naturalistic forms and muted colors. 14. The term "Synthetism" was first used by French art critic FÃÂélix FÃÂénÃÂéon in 1886. 15. It was derived from the French word "synthese", which means "synthesis". 16. Synthetism was also sometimes referred to as " Cloisonnism", due to the use of cloisonnÃÂé enamel in some of Gauguin's work. 17. The Synthetist artists were united by their shared interest in non-naturalistic and expressive art. 18. They believed that art should be accessible to everyone, and that it should be expressive and emotive. 19. Synthetist artists often worked in series, creating multiple works on a single theme. 20. Many Synthetist artists were also involved in other art movements, such as Impressionism, Neo-Impressionism, and Symbolism.
