  1. Second text

  2. What is an analysis? • Examine it… read the text, highlight parts • Dissect the text… pull it apart, from what you have highlighted….select the bits that explain Early Cubism and its influences, ideas, art works. • Understand it… explain what the writers are saying (in depth) • Evaluate it… scrutinize the text.

  3. Theories of Modern ArtHerschell B. Chipp • Theories of Modern Art: A Source Book by Artists and Critics (California Studies in the History of Art) • Published June 13th 1984 by University of California Press (first published 1982) • A collection of interviews, articles, letters, and manifestos dealing with Postimpressionism, symbolism, fauvism, Expressionism, and cubism.

  4. From ‘goodreads, reviews • “I dip in and out of this book regularly, so inspiring to read the thoughts and manifestos right from the source.” • “This is THE source book for all serious students of Art and Art History” • “If you want to get inside the mind of some the great artists, this book is it. It includes an analysis of their work and shares correspondence by the artists with other”

  5. ‘from the horses mouth’ • Texts taken from writers, critics and artists who were around at the time of the Cubists…their contemporaries. • Find the interesting bits that they have written that explain, discuss, philosophise etc what Cubism, the art and artists were all about.

  6. Third text • You may need to research from another source to help explain things, i.e. artist mentioned or words etc that need explaining or you are not sure of.

  7. Evaluate/scrutinize the text • Why is it valuable to have texts from the age? (NOT in retrospect, but contemporaries) • Is it important information? Why? • Who were the writers? Are they of any historical value? • What does it say about the Modernist age that writers, artists, critics etc wrote so much about the art/artists? (the ‘conceptual’ age)
