Paul Gauguin, in full Eugène-Henri-Paul Gauguin (born June 7, 1848, Paris, France-died May 8, 1903, Atuona, Hiva Oa, Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia) French painter, printmaker and sculptor who sought to achieve a "primitive” expression of spiritual and emotional states in his work.
The artist, whose work has been categorized as Post-Impressionist, Synthetist and Symbolist, is particularly well known for his creative relationship with Vincent van Gogh as well as for his self-imposed exile in Tahiti, French Polynesia.
His artistic experiments influenced many avant-garde developments in the early 20th century.
Gauguin’s influence was immense and varied. His legacy rests partly in his dramatic decision to reject the materialism of contemporary culture in favour of a more spiritual, unfettered lifestyle. It also rests in his tireless experimentation. Scholars have long identified him with a range of stylistic movements, and the challenge of defining his oeuvre, particularly the late work, attests to the uniqueness of his vision.

Da sapere
[modifica]Le Isole Marchesi sono un gruppo di isole vulcaniche, il più settentrionale del territorio d'oltremare della Polinesia francese, di cui sono una delle 5 divisioni amministrative.

Cenni geografici

L'isola più grande dell'arcipelago è Nuku Hiva.
La corrente equatoriale meridionale sferza le isole impietosamente, e ciò ha portato alla formazione di grotte marine lungo le coste. Si stima che le isole abbiano tra 1,3 milioni di anni (Fatu Hiva) a 6 milioni di anni (Eiao).
Cenni storici
[modifica]Si stima che l'uomo raggiunse le isole dell'arcipelago delle Marchesi intorno al 100 a.C., provenienti dalle isole Tonga e Samoa. Quindi la prima colonizzazione fu di tipo polinesiana.
