(83) 
Answered by Examlex AI CopilotThe Poussinistes and Rubénistes were two opposing factions of French artists in the 17th and 18th centuries. The Poussinistes, named after the artist Nicolas Poussin, believed in the supremacy of line and drawing, and favored a more classical, restrained style of painting. They emphasized the importance of composition, clarity, and intellectual content in their work.
On the other hand, the Rubénistes, named after the artist Peter Paul Rubens, championed a more expressive, colorful, and dynamic style of painting. They prioritized the use of color, brushwork, and emotion in their art, and were more inclined towards dramatic and sensual subject matter.
The debate between the two groups centered around the relative importance of drawing versus color, and the balance between intellectual and emotional content in art. This debate reflected broader philosophical and aesthetic discussions of the time, and had a significant impact on the development of art theory and practice in the following centuries.
