Félix Fénéon in 1890"" by Paul Signac Pointillism Pointillism () is a technique of painting in which small, distinct dots of color are applied in patterns to form an image. Georges Seurat and Paul Signac developed the technique in 1886, branching from Impressionism. The term ""Pointillism"" was coined by art critics in the late 1880s to ridicule the works of these artists, and is now used without its earlier mocking connotation. The movement Seurat began with this technique is known as Neo-impressionism. The Divisionists, too,"
"Punctualism Punctualism (commonly also called ""pointillism"" or ""point music"") is a style of musical composition prevalent in Europe between 1949 and 1955 ""whose structures are predominantly effected from tone to tone, without superordinate formal conceptions coming to bear"" . In simpler terms: ""music that consists of separately formed particles—however complexly these may be composed—[is called] punctual music, as opposed to linear, or group-formed, or mass-formed music"" (, bolding in the source). This was accomplished by assigning to each note in a composition values drawn from scales of pitch, duration, dynamics, and attack characteristics, resulting in a ""stronger individualizing of separate"

"eye and mind of the viewer to blend the color spots into a fuller range of tones. It is related to Divisionism, a more technical variant of the method. Divisionism is concerned with color theory, whereas pointillism is more focused on the specific style of brushwork used to apply the paint. It is a technique with few serious practitioners today, and is notably seen in the works of Seurat, Signac and Cross. However, see also Andy Warhol's early works, and Pop Art. The practice of Pointillism is in sharp contrast to the traditional methods of blending pigments on a palette."
"Jim Pescott Jim Pescott is a Calgary-based Canadian visual artist and painter. Pescott paints with a style reminiscent of Pointillism; he is often referred to as a pointillist. His style, however, is different from the classic approach. By contrast to Seurat and his followers who brought the world Pointillism over a century ago, Pescott mixes colors on his palette as opposed to placing dots of different colors on canvas side-by-side to fill defined spaces. He refers to his style of painting as ""Dottilism"". Pescott paints from three sources: actual places ""on site"", his photograph collection, and images in his thoughts."

Dubois-Pillet and Louis Hayet were the two Neo-impressionists who were most focused on the theoretical aspects and scientific basis of their art. Starting around 1887, Dubois-Pillet explored the science of color perception as it related to Pointillism by investigating the work of English polymath Thomas Young (1773–1829), who concluded that the eye has three color receptors, each sensitive to one of the primary colors of light (green, red, and violet). Dubois-Pillet applied Young's findings into a triad color theory which he"

In fact, as early as 1922 the French word ""pointillisme"", evoking Seurat's painting technique, had been applied to music in this opposite sense of a ""mosaic-like method of construction, an infinite accumulation of small and insignificant inorganic details"", with reference to Arnold Schoenberg's operas, ""Erwartung"" and ""Die glückliche Hand"" . The concept and its purpose were first articulated in print by Pierre Boulez, in his 1954 article ""Recherches maintenant"": ""Nevertheless, despite an excess of arithmetic, we had achieved a certain ‘punctuality’ of sound—by which I mean,"
"Van Gogh was one of the artists later called ""Post-Impressionists"" who was influenced by Seurat's style that rejected realism and idealism to create a new genre based upon abstraction and simplicity. Van Gogh learned from Seurat the beauty in simplicity and a means to convey messages in a more optimistic, light way than his work in the Netherlands. While he could not match Seurat's precision, aspects of Pointillism were integrated into van Gogh's work. In ""Bank of the Seine"" (F293) van Gogh uses Pointillism in the small dots for the trees, larger dots in the sky and dashes for water."

"Phenomenalism Phenomenalism is the view that physical objects cannot justifiably be said to exist in themselves, but only as perceptual phenomena or sensory stimuli (e.g. redness, hardness, softness, sweetness, etc.) situated in time and in space. In particular, some forms of phenomenalism reduce talk about physical objects in the external world to talk about ""bundles of sense-data"". Phenomenalism is a radical form of empiricism. Its roots as an ontological view of the nature of existence can be traced back to George Berkeley and his subjective idealism, upon which David Hume further elaborated. John Stuart Mill had a theory of perception"

"Divisionism Divisionism (also called chromoluminarism) was the characteristic style in Neo-Impressionist painting defined by the separation of colors into individual dots or patches which interacted optically. By requiring the viewer to combine the colors optically instead of physically mixing pigments, Divisionists believed they were achieving the maximum luminosity scientifically possible. Georges Seurat founded the style around 1884 as chromoluminarism, drawing from his understanding of the scientific theories of Michel Eugène Chevreul, Ogden Rood and Charles Blanc, among others.

Point processes can be used as mathematical models of phenomena or objects representable as points in some type of space. There are different mathematical interpretations of a point process, such as a random counting measure or a random set. Some authors regard a point process and stochastic process as two different objects such that a point process is a random object that"

At the end of 1886 Theo found living with Vincent to be ""almost unbearable"".

"Impressionism. The Impressionist Camille Pissarro experimented with Neo-Impressionist ideas between the mid-1880s and the early 1890s. Discontented with what he referred to as romantic Impressionism, he investigated Pointillism, which he called scientific Impressionism, before returning to a purer Impressionism in the last decade of his life. Vincent van Gogh used colour and vibrant swirling brush strokes to convey his feelings and his state of mind. Although they often exhibited together, Post-Impressionist artists were not in agreement concerning a cohesive movement. Yet, the abstract concerns of harmony and structural arrangement, in the work of all these artists, took precedence over naturalism."

Beginning around 1895, he gradually shifted his technique, instead using broad, blocky brushstrokes and leaving small areas of exposed bare canvas between the strokes. The resulting surfaces resembled mosaics, and the paintings may be seen as precursors to Fauvism and Cubism. In the Pointillist style, minute spots of paint were used to blend colors harmoniously; in contrast, the strategy in ""second generation Neo-Impressionism"" was to keep the colors separate, resulting in ""vibrant shimmering visual effects through contrast"".
