We Shall Not Go to Market Today (1892)-�This is�a significant Post-Impressionist work depicting five seated Tahitian women in a frieze-like composition�at the market in Papeete.�The painting is known for its serene, rhythmic arrangement, in which five women are aligned without overlapping, their gestures and eye movements almost identically aligned.�� *Paul Gauguin (1848-1903)��was a French painter, sculptor,�printmaker,�ceramist, and writer, whose work has been primarily associated with the�Post-Impressionist�and�Symbolist�movements.�He is a noted as a pioneer of modern art, known for his experimental use of color and Synthetist style,�that were distinct from�Impressionism.�He abandoned a career as a stockbroker and his family in France, escaped from European life to pursue a "primitive" existence and artistic vision, eventually settling in Tahiti and the Marquesas Islands.�His work�rejected Western naturalism in favor of simplified forms, bold outlines, and non-naturalistic colors to express emotional, tranquil and spiritual states. Gauguin's art was largely unappreciated during his lifetime but profoundly influenced 20th-century avant-garde artists such as Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse.�
