Cubism
Influences
- African art - Picasso and Georges Braque collected African masks and adapted
the way the African artist conceptualised the depiction of many by simplifying it
to basic shapes. It was about the universal representation of man
- Cezanne's way of depicting the multiple viewpoints on an object at once, the
flatness of his canvas
- Les Demoiselles D'Avignon
- Shapes are flattened

Cezanne Phase
- Depicting multiple viewpoints at once
- Breaking up forms into sharp, angular shapes
- Conceptual, disciplined, geometric
- Forms and subject is heavily simplified
- No light or shadow source- objects in back and foreground have the same
shading and lighting
- Monochromatic

Analytical Phase
- Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso began working together
- Subject matter was usually still-lifes and portraits
- Simultaneity- Multiple viewpoints of a subject are shown
- Difference between foreground and background disappear as space becomes
flat
- Broke the subject matter up into different geometric facets
- Facets were distinguished using brushstrokes
- Ochres, greens, browns
- Paintings were difficult to read so they left clues
- Began using oval canvases
- Gradually grew more complex full of diagonal and horizontal lines, making it
harder to read
