"Arearea" or "Joyousness" is an 1892 oil painting by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin. Created during Gauguin's first stay in Tahiti, the painting is a quintessential example of his Primitivist style, which sought to escape the confines of European civilization and depict an idyllic vision of a more natural and primitive way of life. The canvas, measuring 75 cm × 94 cm (29.5 in × 37 in), is currently housed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.

The painting features two Tahitian women in the foreground, with one playing a musical instrument and the other listening, set against a vivid landscape that includes a dog, a statue of an idol, and other figures in the background. The use of bold colors and simplified forms reflects Gauguin's departure from European artistic conventions and his embrace of the perceived purity of the Tahitian environment and culture. The composition's dreamlike quality and the juxtaposition of the figures with the landscape evoke a sense of myth and a timeless, joyous atmosphere.

"Arearea" is notable for its exploration of themes such as the exotic, the spiritual, and the sensual. Gauguin's work from this period often reflects his complex views on the noble savage myth and his romanticized, though sometimes problematic, interpretation of Tahitian life. The painting is a significant work within Gauguin's oeuvre and is often discussed in the context of his influence on modern art and his contribution to the Symbolist movement. It is a testament to Gauguin's search for a paradise lost and his attempt to capture the essence of a culture that he saw as untainted by the industrialization of the West.
