Pablo Picasso

This is my third thread dedicated to another great artist of the 20th century. I've posted works of art from Surrelism and Pop art. Now is time for Cubism. Just a quick intro Cubism:

Cubism was developed between about 1908 and 1912 in a collaboration between Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Their immediate influences are said to be Tribal Art (although Braque later disputed this) and the work of Paul Cezanne. The movement itself was not long-lived or widespread, but it began an immense creative explosion which resonated through all of 20th century art.

The key concept of Cubism is that the essence of objects can only be captured by showing it from multiple points of view simultaneously.

Cubism had run its course by the end of World War I, but among the movements directly influenced by it were Orphism, Purism, Precisionism, Futurism, Constructivism, and, to some degree, Expressionism.

So, I will posting mostly art by Picasso. Enjoy! 🙂

My last one for now:

I love the way he used colors 😛

This one is my favorite, even though is in white and black 😖

I was never into Picasso. It was his style that just wasnt my thing.

Here is a good example of Cubism. Notice how he expresses human feelings and facial features in this piece:

Great combiniation 😄
