  1. Cubism Conception & Origins

  2. Cubism is an early-20th-century avant-garde art movement pioneered by Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso, and later joined by Juan Gris & others that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture.

  3. Juan Gris ~ Portrait of Picasso

  4. Cubism has been considered the most influential art movement of the 20th century. Variants such as Futurism and Constructivism developed in other countries.

  5. Picasso ~ AmbroiseVollard

  6. In Cubist artwork, objects are analyzed, 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.

  7. Georges Braque ~ Houses at L'Estaque

  8. Picasso became recognized by 1911 as the inventor of Cubism, while Braque’s importance and precedence was argued later, with respect to his treatment of space, volume and mass in the L’Estaque landscapes.

  9. Juan Gris - Bottle and Knife

  10. Historians have divided the history of cubism into phases. In one scheme, the first phase of cubism, known as Analytic Cubism, was both radical and influential as a short but highly significant art movement between 1907 and 1911 in France. A second phase, Synthetic Cubism, remained vital until around 1919, when the Surrealist movement gained popularity.
