Seurat
He invented Pointillism, also called Luminism.
Pointillism painting, a technique where small dots of color are applied to create a larger image, was significant in modern art movements for its innovative approach to color and light. Developed by artists like Georges Seurat, Pointillism challenged traditional painting methods and influenced later movements like Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. Its emphasis on optical mixing and scientific color theory helped pave the way for abstract art and the exploration of new ways to represent reality.

Georges Seurat founded the Pointillism art movement in 1886 with his painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. The term Pointillism was first coined by art critics in the late 1880s to ridicule the works of these artists, and is now used without its earlier mocking connotation. Neo-Impressionism and Divisionism are also terms used to describe this technique of painting.
Some recent art movements include digital art, street art, and bio art. These movements explore new mediums, technologies, and social issues, pushing the boundaries of traditional art forms.

Pointillism is an art technique developed in the late 19th century that involves creating images using small dots of color, emphasizing optical mixing and the effects of light. In contrast, Aboriginal art encompasses a diverse range of traditional and contemporary artistic practices by Indigenous Australians, often featuring intricate patterns and symbols that convey cultural stories, beliefs, and connections to the land. While both styles can utilize dot patterns, their cultural significance, purpose, and historical contexts differ greatly. Pointillism is primarily a Western art movement, whereas Aboriginal art is deeply rooted in Indigenous heritage and spirituality.
