A fervent anarchist, visionary and influential art critic, Félix Fénéon made himself very early, the defender of Arthur poets Rimbaud, Jules Laforgue, Stéphane Mallarme, Paul Valery and Guillaume Apollinaire, or post-impressionist pictorial movements such as Pointilism, Synthetism, Symbolism or the Nabis, while his contemporaries incented more poets and academic art.
He also wrote a text of prime importance, the manifesto of neo-Impressionism, "The Impressionists in 1886", published by the magazine La Vogue.
He was also animator, creator and editor of many literary and avant-garde magazines among the most important of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries such as "La Vogue", "The Independent Review", "The Plume" , "Political and literary interviews", "La Revue blanche" ...
His friend Octave Mirbeau describes it: "In spite of his deliberately cold appearance, his rather stiff policy, the special dandyism of his manners, reserved and haughty, he has a warm and faithful heart. But he does not give it to everyone, because nobody is less commonplace than him. His confidence once won, one can rest in him as under a hospitable roof. We know that we will be pampered and defended, if necessary. "
