Cubism
Cubism was an early 20th century avant-garde art movement founded by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Cubism involved depicting subjects from multiple viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context. The artists fragmented objects and reassembled them in an abstracted form rather than using single-point perspective. This allowed for objects to be analyzed from multiple angles and depicted simultaneously on a two-dimensional surface. Cubism revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture.

Cubism is a 20th-century movement initiated by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque in France.
Cubism rejected traditional perspective, utilizing geometric shapes and viewing objects from multiple angles.
Picasso's early traditional style evolved, showcasing more geometric forms during his Cubist phase.
Picasso's significant works include 'The Old Guitarist' and 'The Boy with a Pipe,' the latter selling for over $100 million.
While many of Picasso's Cubist works are geometrically recognizable, some challenge viewers to identify underlying subjects.
Cubist pieces often incorporate angular shapes; however, portraits may feature curved objects alongside triangular forms.
Cubism gained popularity in the Czech Republic, inspiring artistic works in architecture, pottery, and furniture.
The presentation concludes by encouraging further exploration of various art movements related to Cubism.
