12. Cubism After Post-Impressionism in the early 20th Century came Cubism. Cubism was a focus on the SHAPE of objects. It attempts to represent all sides of a three-dimensional object in two dimensions. Thus, it often appears, at first glace, that space and perspective are distorted.
Famous Cubists include Pablo Piccasso and George Braque.
