What are the representatives and masterpieces of Fauvism?

Fauvism was associated with Matisse from the beginning. This name is a Paris critic's sarcasm to a batch of works with wild style, exaggerated artistic language, deformation and expressive force, represented by Matisse, which were exhibited in Paris Autumn Salon in 1905. Cubism liberated painting from rationality. In Matisse's paintings, color not only becomes an emotion, but also an image, which is regarded as the expression of self-intuition and the only important element to achieve a balanced and complete picture. In Harmony in Red, Matisse completely abandoned perspective and light and shade, and showed a pattern world full of contrasting colors with full colors, orange and blue, yellow and purple, red and black. In the innocence and simplicity of this seemingly children's painting, the artist has reached the realm of returning to nature.
