 Vincent van Gogh is one of the most famous artists in the world , despite that he was virtually unrecognized during his lifetime . After his first exhibitions in the late 1880s , his reputation grew slowly but steadily among artists , art critics , dealers and collectors . In 1887 André Antoine installed Van Gogh 's paintings alongside Georges Seurat and Paul Signac , at the Théâtre Libre in Paris some of which were acquired by Julien Tanguy . In 1898 his work was described in " Le Moderniste " by the poet Albert Aurier as characterised by " fire , intensity , sunshine " .

 The Group of Five continued working together in the 1920s , during which their reputations solidified and hostility to their work gradually diminished , but eventually the group split apart ; Andrade and Oswald de Andrade had a serious ( and public ) falling @-@ out in 1929 . New groups were formed out of the splinters of the original , and in the end many different modernist movements could trace their origins to the Week of Modern Art .

 For months , Van Gogh worked at Cormon 's studio , where he frequented the circle of the Australian artist John Peter Russell , and met fellow students Émile Bernard , Louis Anquetin and Henri de Toulouse @-@ Lautrec – who painted a portrait of Van Gogh with pastel . The group congregated at Julien " Père " Tanguy 's paint store ( which was , at that time , the only place where Paul Cézanne 's paintings were displayed ) . He had easy access to Impressionist works in Paris . In 1886 , two large exhibitions were staged , in which Neo @-@ Impressionism was first exhibited , bringing attention to Georges Seurat and Paul Signac . Though Theo kept a stock of Impressionist paintings in his gallery on Boulevard Montmartre , Van Gogh seemingly had problems acknowledging the new developments in art .

 Despite their subsequent labels as Abstract Expressionist , action painters and so forth , this is a picture of a group that never was a group , a picture of fifteen individuals , unified only by the click of a camera at a particular time and place .
