Question 1: Why did Van Gogh become mentally ill? Van Gogh, at that time, his own artistic creation was not recognized by others, and the society at that time did not accept his artistic ideas, but he still persisted.

He was a pioneer of Expressionism and deeply influenced twentieth-century art, especially Fauvism and German Expressionism. Van Gogh was an artist with a true sense of mission.

Question 3: How did Van Gogh get his mental illness? The Dutch painter Van Gogh, A representative figure of Post-Impressionism, he was one of the most outstanding artists of the 19th century. He loves life, but he has encountered many setbacks and hardships in life. He devoted himself to art and boldly innovated. On the basis of extensive study of predecessors such as Rembrandt, he absorbed the experience of Impressionist painters in color, and was influenced by Eastern art, especially Japanese prints, to form his own unique artistic style. He created many works that are full of passion for life and full of humanitarian spirit, expressing the depression, sadness, sympathy and hope in his heart, and they are still well-known around the world. Van Gogh was born in a rural pastor's family in the Netherlands. He is one of the three great masters of Post-Impressionism. When Van Gogh was young, he worked as a clerk in a painting shop. This was his earliest "art education." Later, he went to Paris and met the Impressionist painters, and was inspired and influenced by colors. For this reason, people call him a "Post-Impressionist". But he studied the expressive power of line in Eastern art more thoroughly than the Impressionist painters, and he admired the "ukiyo-e" of Japan's Katsushika Hokusai. Among Western painters, those who had a greater spiritual influence on him were Rembrandt, Daumier and Millais. Van Gogh was kind-hearted and sympathized with the poor. In his early years, in order to "comfort all the unfortunate people in the world," he went to a mining area to work as a priest at his own expense. He ate the worst food like the miners and slept on the floor together. When a mine exploded, he once risked his life to rescue a seriously injured miner. His over-serious spirit of sacrifice aroused uneasiness in the church, and he was finally removed from office. In this way, he returned to his painting career, received short-term guidance from his cousin and some Dutch painters at the time, and established friendship with new painters in Paris (including the Impressionists). All of Van Gogh's outstanding and original works were completed in the last six years of his life. The mood of his first works was often low, but later, a large number of his works changed from low to loud and clear, as if he wanted to use cheerful songs to comfort the suffering of the world and express his strong ideals and hopes. A British critic said: "He spent all his energy pursuing the simplest and most common thing in the world, which is the sun." His paintings are not only full of bright colors under the sun, but also go down more than once Depicts the eye-catching sun itself, and several times depicts sunflowers. In order to commemorate his deceased cousin Mo Fu, he painted a picture of "Peach Blossoms in Bloom" under the sun, and wrote a poem: "As long as the living are alive, the dead will always be alive." From a historical perspective, Van Gogh was indeed a very advanced painter. His works contain a profound sense of tragedy, and his strong personality and unique pursuit of form were far ahead of the times and indeed difficult to be accepted by people at the time. He used the environment to grasp the object, and he reshaped reality to achieve tangible reality, which contributed to the birth of Expressionism. When people misunderstood him the most, it was when he was most confident in his creations.
Therefore, he left behind an eternal work of art. He directly influenced French Fauvism, German Expressionism, and even the lyrical abstract portraiture that emerged in the early 20th century. "Sunflower" was written in the sunny and bright south of France. The painter is like a blazing flame, full of fiery passion. The brushstrokes that give a sense of movement and seem to be spinning are so thick and powerful, and the contrast of colors is also pure and strong. However, this roughness and simplicity are full of wisdom and aura. When viewers look at this painting, they are all touched by the exciting visual effects, their hearts are trembled by it, and their passions burst out. They are all eager to try, and they are all integrated into Van Gogh's rich subjective emotions. In short, the sunflowers described by Van Gogh are not just plants, but living creatures with primitive impulse and passion. His works are so beautiful and profound... The seemingly childish and irregular lines drawn by a child show that Van Gogh has an ageless childlike innocence and restless desire to create. His vigorous, powerful and varied writing speed makes people feel his inner heart. It is extremely crazy and passionate, as if a fire has erupted under the iceberg in the painting. Yes, Van Gogh’s paintings are always full of aura! Looking at Van Gogh's masterpieces one after another, it is really breathtaking. I think of the blasphemy against him and his paintings in the past, and I feel extremely ashamed. At the same time, I thought of Van Gogh's poor and miserable life. He was not only a veritable pauper, but also mentally ill. In 1888, while having an excited debate about art with his good friend Gauguin, he had his first mental episode. In order to prove his point of view, he resolutely cut off his own ear. In 1889, he was admitted to the Saint-Remy mental hospital. July 27, 1890,...gt;gt;
Question 4: Why is Van Gogh so smart because he is a psychopath? Smart is a relative term, he is only good in one aspect.
There is only a thin line between genius and madness. Let’s see if anyone appreciates it. If a great person understands him and says he is very good, he is a genius. Ordinary people will only call him crazy. He became more famous after his death at all times and in all over the world.
Question 5: Was Van Gogh a lunatic? Was Van Gogh really mentally ill? Yes, he was. But Van Gogh was not crazy, just a period of abnormality.
He later suffered from mental illness and eventually committed suicide.
Vincent William Van Gogh (1853-1890), also known as Van Gogh in Chinese, was a Dutch post-impressionist painter. Born into a family of Protestant ministers, he was a pioneer of Post-Impressionism and deeply influenced twentieth-century art, especially Fauvism and Expressionism.
In his early days, Van Gogh only created in gray and dark colors until he met the Impressionists and Neo-Impressionists in Paris and incorporated their bright colors and painting styles to create his unique personal painting style. Most of his most famous works were created during the last two years of his life, during which Van Gogh suffered from mental illness, which eventually led him to commit suicide at the age of 37. After Van Gogh's death, Van Gogh's works, such as "Starry Night", "Sunflowers" and "Wheatfield with Crows", have become among the most famous and precious works of art in the world. Van Gogh's works are currently mainly stored in the Musée d'Orsay in France and the Kunshaus Museum in Zurich.
Question 6: What kind of mental illness did Van Gogh suffer from? He suffered from schizophrenia. Mental illness usually occurs in young adults. When reality hits Van Gogh, he will have intermittent attacks. He is very stubborn about things, but reality always goes against his wishes. Because he did not get timely help, he eventually led to the disease under the control of his morbid psychology. His schizophrenia was actually caused by his enthusiasm for art, coupled with genetic inheritance.
Question 7: What impact did Van Gogh’s mental illness have on his works? So I am more inclined to think that Van Gogh’s mental illness is closer to a legendary characterization technique. Van Gogh’s works and mental illness There is no direct necessary connection between them. Mental illness is just an interpretation of the abnormal behavior displayed by Van Gogh after drinking too much absinthe.
According to the views of the time, anyone who drank alcohol (probably absinthe) regularly was considered a psychopath.
Lautrec (the dwarf painter in the movie "Moulin Rouge") was sent to a mental hospital because of drinking. He later painted some circus scenes to prove that he was not mentally ill, and was finally released. Even in this case, no one connected Lautrec with mental illness.
Whether Van Gogh indeed suffered from mental illness is not easy to determine.
Among Impressionist and Post-Impressionist painters, drinking absinthe while painting is a very popular thing. Absinthe can be hallucinogenic. After drinking absinthe, the world you see will appear Colorful
Question 8: How did Van Gogh become mentally ill? Do his parents know he is mentally ill? It is not a common disease caused by external reasons. This kind of artistic creator is more or less autistic. His parents should know that his parents were not dead when he died, and his younger brother even visited him
Question 9: Analysis of the factors that caused Van Gogh’s mental illness (analyzed from three factors: biological, psychological, and social). The biological factors you mentioned are, I think, physiological factors. I understand that the physiological factor is that there is an abnormal phenomenon in a certain area of ??Van Gogh's brain, and the secretion of certain substances may not be within the normal range. It may have something to do with her brain being injured or hit. Psychological factors: Van Gogh's sexual repression and his intimidating personality determined that he suffered from depression. We can understand that he has a strong hypochondriac quality, and his miserable childhood life gave him a serious lack of security. Because his ego stopped growing prematurely, his psychological maturity was still in his teens. But that's it, the more childish the mentality, the more developed imagination and creativity. Social factors: Van Gogh's living environment at that time, the incomprehension of relatives and friends, the depression of society, and people's ignorance and superficiality were all obvious inducing factors. The occurrence of a tragedy is often caused by multiple factors.
