Dear readers,
I would like to write to you about an interesting artistic style, and that is undoubtedly cubism. This style is interesting precisely because of its cutting of the subject into sharp edges, what fragments that remind us of cubes, rectangles, polygons, cubes, just geometric shapes. My opinion is that if a work succeeds, it is always very interesting and beautiful. It is original.
Cubism is an avant-garde art movement that emerged in the early 20th century and revolutionized the way art was conceived. The principle of cubism lies in its spatial fragmentation and multiple perspectives that challenge traditional forms of representation and perception. The emergence of Cubism was a response to the contradictions and changes of the times, including the impact of World War I on art history. Many artists at the time were seeking new forms of expression, and Cubism provided a radical departure from traditional techniques. Inspired by African, Micronesian, and Native American art, Cubism represented an entirely new conception of art.
One of the defining characteristics of Cubism is its use of fragmentation and multiple points of view. Cubist artists broke objects into geometric shapes and depicted them from multiple angles, creating a sense of movement and dynamism. This technique allowed artists to represent the subject in a new, abstract way, challenging traditional forms of representation and perception. Cubism also influenced other art forms.
Cubism also influenced African and Native American art, which represented simplicity and abstraction. This influence can be seen in the use of geometric shapes and simplified forms in Cubist art. In addition, Cubism was greatly influenced by the diversity of tribal art, which represented different cultures, crafts and societies. The influence of Cubism can still be seen in contemporary art and continues to inspire artists around the world, including those who exhibit here at ORIGINAL GALLERY.
Cubism was a revolutionary artistic movement that emerged in the early 20th century and whose key figures were Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. The two artists met in 1907 and became fast friends, leading to a period of collaboration between 1907 and 1914. During this time they developed the Cubist style, which broke away from traditional representational art by depicting objects from multiple angles and breaking them down into geometric shapes.
The Cubist movement can be divided into two distinct phases: Analytical Cubism and Synthetic Cubism. Analytical Cubism, which lasted from 1909 to 1912, involved breaking objects down into individual parts and presenting them from multiple angles on a single surface. The colors used during this period were neutral to passive and the subject matter was primarily still life. Synthetic Cubism, which followed Analytical Cubism, involved the incorporation of collage and other materials into the artwork to create a more complex image.
Among the most famous works of Cubism is Pablo Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, which is considered the first Cubist painting. Other notable works include Georges Braque's Musical Instruments and Picasso's Guernica. Both artists greatly influenced the art world and are considered founders of the Cubist movement. The legacy of cubism can still be seen in contemporary art today, with an emphasis on breaking down and reinterpreting traditional forms.
Cubism, an avant-garde art movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, has had a lasting influence on modern art and architecture. The principle of Cubism lies in its spatial and temporal fragmentation of form, which was a radical departure from traditional representational art. The influence of cubism on Czech art is evident in the works of important artists such as Josef Čapek and Emil Filla. Cubism's emphasis on geometric shapes and abstract forms also contributed to the development of modern architecture, as seen in the works of architects such as Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright. The influence of Cubism can therefore be seen in various areas of art and design.
Cubism also contributed significantly to the development of abstract art and non-representationalism. The movement paved the way for artists to experiment with new forms of expression, breaking away from traditional representational art and exploring the possibilities of abstraction. This experimentation led to the development of various artistic movements, such as Abstract Expressionism and Minimalism, which continue to influence contemporary art. The influence of Cubism on non-representationalism can also be seen in the works of contemporary artists such as Gerhard Richter and Anish Kapoor. Thus, the influence of Cubism on the art world is felt even today.
The continued relevance of Cubism in contemporary art and design is a testament to its enduring legacy. The movement's emphasis on form, structure and abstraction continues to inspire artists and designers today. The Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Russia and the Strelka Institute for Media, Architecture and Design both presented exhibitions exploring the influence of Cubism on contemporary art and design. The influence of this movement can also be seen in the work of contemporary Czech artists such as Jan Rous. The influence of Cubism on the art world continues to be felt and appreciated by artists and art enthusiasts alike.
For this reason, we have chosen this style for the featured works that we select each week and you can see them immediately on the home page of our ORIGINAL GALLERY website. I believe that I have selected interesting, beautiful and original works that will attract you just by their concept.
Thank you for your attention and look forward to the next time.
