"Arearea No Varua Ino" (Words of the Devil) is an 1894 painting by French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin during his first stay in Tahiti. The work is a quintessential example of Gauguin's Primitivist style, which he developed after leaving the so-called "civilized" world for the perceived purity and exoticism of the South Seas. The painting is a testament to Gauguin's exploration of the themes of mythology, spirituality, and the dichotomy between the primitive and the modern.

The title, "Arearea No Varua Ino," reflects Gauguin's interest in the native culture and language, with "arearea" meaning "joyfulness" and "varua ino" translating to "evil spirit" or "devil." This juxtaposition of joy and evil is emblematic of the complex narrative Gauguin often infused in his Tahitian works. The painting depicts two Tahitian women sitting on the ground, one of which is gazing at a small idol or spirit figure, which could be interpreted as the "varua ino" mentioned in the title. The background is lush and vibrantly colored, a characteristic of Gauguin's style during this period.

The painting is notable for its bold use of color, flat planes, and the abstracted, simplified forms that reject the traditional European perspective and modeling. Gauguin's work from this period is often characterized by a synthesis of the local Tahitian environment and the artist's own imaginative interpretation, creating a dreamlike, sometimes mystical atmosphere.

"Arearea No Varua Ino" is part of a larger body of work that Gauguin produced in Tahiti, which was critical to the development of modern art and had a profound influence on subsequent artists. The painting is held in a private collection, and its influence can be seen in the works of artists who followed the Primitivist movement, as well as in the broader context of 20th-century art history.
