люминизм
Term meaning roughly, painting of light. Applied specifically to American landscape painters of the Hudson River School from about 1830-70. Many of their paintings were dominated by intense and often dramatic light effects. In British art a form of Luminism underlies Whistler's 'Nocturnes'. Sometimes applied to Neo-Impressionist paintings in which the Divisionist technique leads to a marked all over luminosity.
