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.
