Definition
A painting style characterized by bold outlines separating areas of flat, unmodulated color, resembling the compartments in cloisonné enamel work. The technique emphasizes decorative pattern over realistic representation.
Etymology
From French 'cloison' meaning 'partition' or 'compartment,' referring to the metal strips that separate colored enamels in cloisonné metalwork. The term was applied to painting by critic Édouard Dujardin in 1888 to describe works by Émile Bernard and Paul Gauguin.
Kelly Says
Cloisonnism was painting's rebellion against realistic representation - artists like Gauguin literally outlined their subjects like stained glass windows, turning everyday scenes into decorative tapestries! This technique helped birth modern art by proving that paintings didn't need to look 'real' to be powerfully expressive.
