Virtual Art History Series: Who Are The Nabis, and Why Don’t I Know These Amazing Artists?

The Nabis, whose name means prophet in Hebrew, were a group of artists whose spiritual, emotional and aesthetic inspiration came from Paul Gauguin and the Symbolist poets. They had one foot in the 19th Century and one foot in the 20th. While not as famous as the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists, the work of Bonnard, Vuillard, Denis, Vallotton, and their compatriots was just as innovative and original. Explore what stirred The Nabis to create works with expressive and transcendent connections to the divine in nature.
