Pablo Picasso, Cubism

Cubism

History

Cubism is a non-objective form of art developed initially in France by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque during the year 1906. 

Influences

Cubism was influenced during the 20^th century as a response to a world that was changing at unprecedented rate.

Cubism came about as a challenge by artists who were exhausted by the form of western art which they believed had run its course.

Style

Cubists defied conservative forms of painting.

Their aspiration was to develop a new way of looking at art which reflected the modern age.

Cubism is also the first style of abstract (conceptual) art which evolved in the beginning of 20^th century

Elements of Design

Line
thick and darkly outlined lines and shapes are the most arresting description and this draw the onlooker’s awareness

Shape 
Cubism is often described as a geometric simplification of natural shapes and images.

The cubists created a new way of seeing things in art. Most of the subjects used, whether they were people or landscapes, they were represented as grouping of basic geometric shapes, at times showing numerous viewpoints of a particular image.

 Triangles and sharp angled large and small shapes are used.

Direction

The approach used by cubists was more about how we see images in our minds eye rather than in real life. For example; we close our eyes to picture an image and it is often hard to picture the whole image. And hence it is known that we usually see parts or broken pieces.

Cubists therefore are often described as looking like pieces of fractured glass.

Size

60 х 49 cm, 23 ⅝ х 19 ¼ inches, size is rather large so the actual emotions are easy to depict

Texture

The representation emerge to be fairly flat in posture

Colour

Vivid colours are used unlike the natural colours commonly used.

Colours seems to contradict at the same time complement each other

Yellow, green and blue is used mostly

Value

The painting is valued for its expressive style.

Though, tone is not used in the conventional sense because of the already sensational and unusually vivid and dark conflicting colours. Picasso has created tone by painting in diverse shades of the identical colour. 

Principles of design

Balance

The image is not proportioned but they share a careful balance.

Gradation

The painting has light changing to dark and colours unfolding onto each other

Repetition

The objects look similar and the colours have been used repetitively

Contrast

Contrast of large images, especially triangles or sharp angled. Colour contrast is more on the bright side

Harmony  

This painting shows harmony. the combination of  lines, colours and shapes generate harmony in this portrait.

Dominance

Dominance is mostly on the objects being portrayed of the weeping woman.

Unity

The bright unusual colours produce a kind of unity
