Robert Delaunay's "Orpsism"

Robert Delaunay is regarded as one of the first artists in France to create pure abstract works.He tried to combine the fragmentary Cubism form with the changeable color to create a "pure painting" with color as the "theme".These works are full of enthusiasm and charm.For this reason,art critic Guillaume Apollinaire(1880.8.26-1918.11.9)specially invented a new word "Orphism"(Orphic Cubism)to describe Delaunay’s works.The characteristics of Delaunay’s paintings are mainly embodied in: first,the "color shape melody" based on the "decomposition of form";second,the "shape" regrouping based on the "color separation";third,the "heterogeneous isomorphism" based on the "decomposition of form";fourth,the "color light" order based on the "color contrast at the same time".The above painting features of Delaunay,to a certain extent,cater to and echo the theoretical appeal of "Orphism" of Apollinaire.1.Delaunay’s original use of light elements is completely based on the "painting factor(element)" : a crystal structure of light and color created by the artist himself,and makes this factor(element)fully authentic.2.Delaunay’s distinctive works provide a "Cubism" construction with different colors from "Picasso",and influence a group of painters.3.The appearance of the "symbol" of "concentric circle structure" in Delaunay’s paintings gives a clear and definite structure and a lofty significance.Delaunay’s distinctive works provide a "Cubism" construction with different colors from "Picasso",and influence a group of painters.For example,many of his works are influenced by Delaunay.For example,the smoker is a continuation of Delaunay’s Eiffel Tower in terms of its vertical structure and plane.The difference is that he highlights people.The modeling elements of his work records in the city belong to the same clan as Delaunay’s whirlpool and disc.Sonia,Delaunay’s wife,is a loyal supporter of her husband.She not only applies her husband’s works to her own design,but also follows her husband’s footsteps in many oil paintings.The color of light in 1914 is a variation of Delaunay’s disc and convoluted form.In addition,Delaunay had influence on Paul Kerry,Franz marke and Auguste mark.In a word,Delaunay has proved and echoed Apollinaire’s "Orphism" through his painting practice.
