fauvist(名词/形容词)
/ˈfoʊvɪst/

In the early 1900s, critics mocked the group as “fauvists,” but the label eventually became a proud name for a new modern style.
在20世纪初,评论家嘲笑这群艺术家为“野兽派”,但这个称呼后来反而成了现代新风格的自豪标签。
fauvist 源自法语 fauve(意为“野兽、野性之兽”),最初是评论界对这类画风“狂野用色”的讥讽称呼;后加上表示“某种主义追随者/从业者”的后缀 -ist,形成指“野兽派画家/野兽派风格”的词。
