Referral Art Movement: Cubism
Picasso was a Spanish painter, draughtsman, and sculptor. He is one of the most recognized figures in 20th century art. He is the best known for co-founding the Cubist movement and for the wide variety if styles embodied in his work.
The Cubism was a truly revolutionary style of modern art developed by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braques. It revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture.
In cubist artworks,
- 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.
- 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.
