"Fauve painting is not everything," said Matisse, "but it is the foundation of everything." The key period of Fauvism, from 1904-1908, saw a revolution in the role of colour in art, that still echoes in the art of today. This section contains work by the original Fauves: Henri Matisse, André Derain, Raoul Dufy, Othon Friesz, Albert Marquet, Henri Manguin, Maurice de Vlaminck, and Charles Camoin. As Fauvism, like Impressionism, had an international impact, we also include some Fauve artists from outside France, such as the Belgians Armand Apol and Auguste Oleffe. For post-WWII colourist and intimiste artists influenced by the Nabis and the Fauves, see Post-war Colourists.
