CUBISMModern Art movement

What is Cubism? Cubism is the most radical, innovative, and influential ism of twentieth-century art. It is complete denial of Classical conception of beauty.

CUBISM

 Cubism was the joint invention of two men, Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. They that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture

Cubism

In Cubism, objects are broken up, analyzed, and re-assembled in an abstracted form, instead of depicting objects from one viewpoint, the artist depicts the subject from a multitude of viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context.

Cubism

Often the surfaces intersect at seemingly random angles, removing a coherent sense of depth. The background and object planes interpenetrate one another to create the shallow ambiguous space, one of cubism's distinct characteristics.
