Odilon Redon admired Paul Gauguin’s use of color, which he called color “derived from that of an other.” A distinctly foreign (as opposed to French) palette is central to both artists’ work, which features striking, nonmimetic colors. Both were reacting against Neo-Impressionist color theory as well as color theorist Charles Blanc’s xenophobic statements about the corrupting influence of color on French art. Gauguin embraced the “pure” colors of non-Western art, whereas Redon proposed a hybrid color palette blending new technologies and traditional models of color while extending French national identity to include the cultures (and colors) of colonial France.

Odilon Redon，Paul Gauguin和Primitivist Color

奥迪隆·雷顿（Odilon Redon）欣赏保罗·高更（Paul Gauguin）对色彩的使用，他称色彩“源于另一种色彩”。两位艺术家的作品都以一种明显的外国（与法国不同）的调色板为特色，这些调色板具有引人注目的非模仿色彩。两者都对新印象派色彩理论以及色彩理论家查尔斯·布兰克（Charles Blanc）关于色彩对法国艺术的腐败影响的仇外言论做出了反应。高更（Gauguin）接受非西方艺术的“纯”色彩，而雷顿（Redon）提出了一种混合调色板，将新技术和传统色彩模型融合在一起，同时将法国的民族身份扩展到包括法国殖民地的文化（和色彩）。
