How Renoir Revolutionised Art

  • Discover the trailblazing spirit of Auguste Renoir, one of the founders of impressionism, whose canvases shattered centuries of artistic convention. In "Renoir - Portrait of Changing Times," we see how Renoir took inspiration from the past, while transforming Parisian life undergoing societal change into timeless masterpieces.
    Renoir's impressionistic strokes capture the pulse of 1870s Paris, a city reeling from war and revolutionary change, whilst incorporating Rococo references. This documentary explores the genesis of Renoir's vision, which melds tradition with the avant-garde.
    As his son later wrote, “Renoir loved fairy tales. The everyday was like a fairy tale to him”. Like the fairytale world of Rococo Painting, Renoir’s impressionist works do not depict reality but create an alluring and beautiful fiction that still captures the imagination today.

    The reason for all this change to "Impressionism" and what follows, are the direct result of the invention of photo cameras. They could capture the reality better than any painter. But not the "impression" and "feel" of them. So the painters, not wanting to become unemployed and irrellevant, switched to what cameras could never capture: the feel and impression

      Absolutely. This is what my art professor told me in university when I took the first History of Fine Art course. Cameras captured a realistic setting, and these impressionist and post-impressionist painters who were also real innovators took things to the next level.

      In part the camera had something to do sure, but also a paradigm shift, look their subjects, completely different than what was being done by academics at the time, different, subjects, compositions, palette, approach (studio vs open air), materials to a degree too...

      @@armandogavilan1815 Camaras had only "something to do" with it? Just something! And how do you explain your idea of "the shift" to impressionism in the mind of the artist. if not the market? So, you think the invention of the engine (trains, cars, subways etc), had only "something" to do with the switch from horse-drawn vehicles and carts, eh? All the polemics and bitting around the subject bush you present, can only muddly the issue rather than explaining it.

With scenes of freedom, life spend with others, laughing, sharing free time, on the best day of the week. The continuous Sunday feeling. A dreamy pastry. A sweet and gentile, doll house kind of impression. The Barbie Painter of his time.

    The British woman narrating pronounced all the French names with such an effort to sound French, then kept saying Watteau with a W sound rather than the V sound that the French use. It sounded a bit silly. In my art history classes at university my professors all said it the French way, 'Vatteau' and we are out in the hinterland of the U.S.

    Just think about it, about the fact that Renoir was considered "outlandish"! That the status quo thought that that was not how art was supposed to look like! It's just impossible for us to understand that mindset. Impressionism is now regarded as kind of a Conservatives Avant-garde... There's always a status quo that thinks what art is supposed to be. Today is not different. The goal, for all of us, is to understand what is the current status quo ( It's really, really hard to reach such understanding), only then we can be free.
