  2. Cubism is an early-20th-century avant-garde art movement pioneered by Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso, and later joined by Juan Gris. The concept developed in Du "Cubisme" of observing a subject from different points in space and time simultaneously.

  3. Cubism has been considered the most influential art movement of the 20th century. In Cubism, objects are broken up and reassembled 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.

  4. Picasso became recognized as the inventor of Cubism. The Demoiselles is generally referred to as the first Cubist picture. This is an exaggeration, although it was a first step towards Cubism it is not yet Cubist.

  5. The Salon Cubists used the faceted treatment of solid and space of multiple viewpoints, blurring the distinctions between past, present and future. The subject was no longer considered from a specific point of view at a moment in timeas if viewed simultaneously from numerous angles with the eye free to roam from one to the other.

  6. Cubist sculpture developed in parallel to Cubist painting. Architectural interest in Cubism centered on the dissolution and reconstitution of three-dimensional form, using simple geometric shapes, juxtaposed without the illusions of classical perspective. The first true Cubist sculpture was Picasso's ~ Woman's Head

  7. Cubist works stressed the use of multiple perspective and complex planar faceting for expressive effect while preserving the eloquence of subject.
