Juan Gris' Portrait of Picasso In the early 1900’s, some artists became interested in African and Native American art. The styles of those cultures inspired cubism. Cubism began in France in 1907. Pablo Picasso and George Braque began painting figures that were made up of cubes, spheres, cylinders, cones, and other geometric shapes. The paintings looked like someone had cut them up and glued them back together.
Cubist artists such as Picasso, Braque and Gris Also began to take object s and disjoint them into different angles
At first, cubists used very little color in their paintings. They used mostly browns, greys, and blues. In 1912, color re-entered the picture and some artists, like Picasso, began using more then just paint and canvas in their art.
