Paul Signac

Paul Signac was a French painter born in 1863, known for developing the Pointillism technique—using tiny dots of color that blend optically when viewed from a distance. He was a leading figure in the Neo-Impressionist movement, collaborating with Georges Seurat to refine this innovative style. Signac’s work often captured vibrant scenes of Paris and coastal landscapes, emphasizing color theory and scientific approaches to painting. His approach revolutionized modern art by showing how the arrangement of dots could create vivid, luminous images, bridging scientific understanding with artistic expression.
