4th Class ~ Cubism Changes Modern Art

See how Cezanne + Braque + Picasso = Cubism

We were roped together going up a mountain. Georges Braque

Cezanne 1906 ~ Braque 1908 ~ Picasso 1909
Georges Braque studied the work of Paul Cezanne and then met Pablo Picasso and between 1907-14 Braque and Picasso pioneered the Cubist format. It was a radical rethinking of representation. They rejected painting as a static illusion of reality, in favor of a fragmented, multi-dimensional form that reflected the complex realities of modern sensibility, in step with new philosophies of perception, and reflected the dynamism of the machine age. Many artists fell under the spell of Cubism, taking the concept and bending it to their individual styles.

Braque and Picasso used a monochromatic palette so their paintings  would look alike
