Week 001 - ImpressionismArtist: Joaquin Mir Trinxet (1873-1940)Joaquin Mir is a Spanish painter. He is more close to the post-impressionist movement but I wanted to share his work with you because in a way he took what he needed from the impressionists and improved it to achieve his personal goals.In his paintings he used to merge colors and shapes so during his first exhibition in Barcelona in 1901 the reviews were very positive but the public found his paintings difficult to comprehend.His palette coincided with the one the Impressionists used and he also coincided with them in excluding the colour black, using a host of combinations to paint shadow. But he used these technical resources to create a world of his own, a new landscape.A quote from Joaquin Mir:All I want is for my works to lighten the heart and flood the eyes and the soul with light.Ressources:If you want to see all the paintings from Joaquin Mir:https://www.the-athenaeum.org/art/list.php?s=tu&m=a&aid=2502&p=1Link to High Resolution in order:https://artsandculture.google.com/asset/the-comparses-of-vilanova/zgFZEURCpu7I8Ahttps://artsandculture.google.com/asset/terraced-village/8QFLi4P2mhR4-whttps://artsandculture.google.com/asset/the-jewel/JAHZY4Ho6HgITghttp://www.sothebys.com/content/dam/stb/lots/L15/L15102/058L15102_8PMV6.jpghttp://www.sothebys.com/content/dam/stb/lots/L13/L13102/031L13102_75V92.jpghttps://www.christies.com/img/LotImages/2015/CKS/2015_CKS_10399_0024_000(joaquin_mir_i_trinxet_es_molinar_palma_de_mallorca).jpghttps://78.media.tumblr.com/4ec6fe22dbcb9ec1c6390ec242fe7c0b/tumblr_os3scd5LR91sgzhgyo1_1280.jpg -- source link
