Best Answer

Representational art depicts something a person, a landscape, a vase of flowers or whatever. Even if the vase, the person, etc are distorted, they are still depicted.
Surrealist paintings depict common things or strange things or fantastic things, but still they depict something you can see.


In the first period of Cubism Braque and Picasso distorted things and person to the verge of chaos, there we have the borderline between representational and non-figurative (or abstract) art. Most cubist paintings have a recognizable subject, and so are representational.


The answer to your question, then, is Yes.
