| The actual art-historical purpose of this show is to help Signac escape from the shadow of Georges Seurat, the master theorist of pointillism, or divisionism. |
| It sounds more as if there is a construct of divisionism on both sides that needs addressing. |
| Seurat's theory of optical mixtures, which he called divisionism, influenced Signac, and the style eventually became known as pointillism. |
| It is not strange when we consider his adherence all his life to so childish a technical programme as divisionism. |
| According to some sources, hundreds of people had recently been denounced by name for divisionism on a recent radio programme. |
| The artistic movement known as divisionism was an Italian response to the impressionists and post-impressionists. |
