I find some of Gauguin's art to be powerfully disturbing. He didn't shy from putting his emotions into his pieces and he utilized several mediums such as wood, not just paint on canvas.

Gauguin's use of bright colors when depicting Tahiti is fascinating and really resonates with the theme of escaping to this paradise island he mythologized.

Gauguin fashioned his art in a sort of primitive styling, and he's often described as having fetishized Tahitian culture.

Without disregarding some of the darker aspects of his career and actions in Tahiti, he was capable of creating some very powerful art.

It is difficult to come to terms with exactly what Gauguin was attempting to do with his later pieces. They are obviously influenced by at least perceptions of primitive art but they are still uniquely Gauguin, and often quite intriguing.
