    CUBISM
    ART
    GROUP 6 PRESENTATION
    WHAT IS CUBISM?
    Cubism is a revolutionary art form that represents reality in warped, often in varying shapes
    and sizes, geometric boxes, in other words cubes. The name ‘Cubism’ is derived from a
    commentary made by Louis Vauxcelles, a known art critic, when viewing art works made by
    George Braque’s exhibit in Paris, 1908. Louis Vauxcelles described the paintings as “Reducing
    everything to geometric outlines, to cubes” hence the name “Cubism”. Calling this art form
    influential is indeed underselling it.

    Cubism opened up almost infinite new possibilities for the treatment of visual reality in art and
    was the starting point for many later abstract styles including constructivism and
    neo-plasticism.

    By breaking objects and figures down into distinct areas – or planes – the artists aimed to
    show different viewpoints at the same time and within the same space and so suggest their
    three dimensional form. In doing so they also emphasized the two-dimensional flatness of the
    canvas instead of creating the illusion of depth. This marked a revolutionary break with the
    European tradition of creating the illusion of real space from a fixed viewpoint using devices
    such as linear perspective, which had dominated representation from the Renaissance
    onwards.
