André Derain – Artist Page | Tella Fine Art

About André Derain (1880–1954)

André Derain was a leading French modernist and a founding force behind Fauvism, known for his bold, expressive use of color. Alongside Matisse, Derain revolutionized early 20th-century painting by breaking away from conventional representation and embracing pure, vibrant tones and simplified forms. His work spans Fauvism, Cubism, landscapes, portraits, and still lifes, making him one of the most diverse and influential modern artists.
