2. Background Cubism Cubist artists
Cubism was founded in or around 1906(dates vary) by pioneering artists including Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Heavy influenced by the late work of Paul Cezanne, his use of colour and shape was evident in early Cubist work.
Cubism revolutionised both painting and sculptures as well as inspiring other art movements such as music.
In cubist artworks objects are broken up, and re-assembled in a new form, instead of making direct copies. Art works often show the object from many different view points at the same time, giving the work an illusion of movement.
