4The beginning of cubism
- Cubism was begun by Pablo Picasso (Spanish,
1882-1973) and Georges Braque (French, 1882-1963)
in 1907. They were greatly inspired by African
sculpture, by painters Paul Cézanne (French,
1839-1906) and Georges Seurat (French,
1859-1891), and by the Fauves. In Cubism the
subject matter is broken up, analyzed, and
reassembled in an abstracted form. Picasso and
Braque initiated the movement when they followed
the advice of Paul Cézanne, who in 1904 said
artists should treat nature "in terms of the
cylinder, the sphere and the cone."
5What is Cubism
Cubism is a nonobjective school of painting and
sculpture developed in Paris in the early 20th
century, characterized by the reduction and
breakup of natural forms into abstract, often
geometric structures usually rendered as a set of
discrete planes. Cubism was an art movement that
revolutionized European painting and sculpture,
and inspired related movements in music and
literature. Analytic cubism and Synthetic cubism
are two forms of cubism.
6Analytical Cubism
- Analytical Cubism is one of the two major
branches of the artistic movement of Cubism and
was developed between 1908 and 1912. Compared to
Synthetic cubism, Analytic Cubists "analyzed"
natural forms and reduced the forms into basic
geometric parts on the two-dimensional picture
plane. Color was almost non-existent except for
the use of a monochromatic scheme that often
included grey, blue and ochre. Instead of an
emphasis on color, Analytic cubists focused on
forms like the cylinder, sphere and the cone to
represent the natural world.
7Synthetic Cubism
- Synthetic Cubism was the second main branch
of Cubism developed by Picasso, Braque, Juan Gris
and others between 1912 and 1919. It was seen as
the first time that a collage had been made as a
fine art work.
8 Facet Cubism
- Facet Cubism, Analytic Cubism, and Synthetic
Cubism were the three phases of Cubism
development. Facet Cubism. Instead of illusions
of the third dimension on a canvas, cubism sets
up an Interchange of planes and dramatic conflict
of patterns, lights, textures.
9The End of cubism
- Cubism was done by the end of World War I.
Directly influenced by it were Orphism,
Precisionism, Futurism, Purism, Constructivism,
and, to some degree, Expressionism.
10Pablo Picasso
Pablo Picasso was born on October 25, 1881 in
Malaga, Spain, as the son of an art and drawing
teacher. He was a brilliant student. He passed
the entrance examination for the Barcelona School
of Fine Arts at the age of 14 in just one day and
was allowed to skip the first two classes.
11Primary source
- In Picassos early twenties he began to tint his
paintings a pale, cold blue. He did this for
three years (1901-1904). No other artist had ever
done this.
12Georges Braque
Georges Braque developed his painting skills
while working for his father, a house decorator.
He moved to Paris in 1900 to study where he was
drawn to the work of the Fauve artists, including
Matisse, Derain and Dufy, as well as the late
landscapes of Cézanne. Meeting Picasso marked a
huge turning point in Braque's development and
together they evolved as leaders of Cubism.
13Paul Cézanne
- He was a French artist and Post Impressionist
painter whose work laid the foundations of the
transition from the 19th century conception of
artistic endeavor to a new and radically
different world of art in the 20th century.
14Influenced by cubism
- Surrealism is a cultural movement that began in
the early-1920s, and is best known for the visual
artworks and writings of the group members. The
works feature the element of surprise, unexpected
juxtapositions and non sequitur. The leader André
Breton was explicit in his assertion that
Surrealism was above all a revolutionary
movement.
Fauvism is French for The Wild Beasts. A
short-lived and loose grouping of early 20th
century Modern artists. The works emphasized
painterly qualities, and the imaginative use of
deep color over the representational values
retained by Impressionism. Fauvists simplified
lines, made the subject of the painting easy to
read and exaggerated perspectives
15Influenced by cubism
- Expressionism is the tendency of an artist to
distort reality for an emotional effect it is a
subjective art form. Expressionism is exhibited
in many art forms, including painting,
literature, theatre, film, architecture and
music. Painters such as Matthias Grünewald and El
Greco can be called expressionist.
Impressionism was a 19th century art movement
that began as a loose association of Paris-based
artists, who began exhibiting their art publicly
in the 1860s. The name of the movement is derived
from the title of a Claude Monet work, Impression.
