    b. wild beasts

    Explanation:

    The term fauves, literally "the wild beasts" came from a derogatory expression used by art critic Louis Vauxcelles when he saw a work by Henry Matisse in 1905 at the Autumn Salon in Paris. The term used by the critic, "Les Fauves", means "the savages". Although followers and supporters of the movement denied the nomenclature, it ended up in the history of art.

    For the Fauvist movement, artistic creations are unrelated to intellect or feelings, that is, artistic creation must be free and spontaneous, based on instinct, primary impulses. Also the colors, was widely taken into account the wide preference for pure colors, they are exalted in Fauvism, and lines and colors do not have a predetermined order, they are used in works of the same primary and instinctive form that make children and savages, as they said the artists themselves.

    Some of the physical characteristics of fauvist painting are the brutal color, the violent and definitive strokes, unreality in the correspondence of the colors of reality with the representation and the painting by broad spots, in the formation of close-ups.
