What was the cubist movement?

Answer 1

A cubist is someone who draws stuff as right angles instead of as it really is. Or, more technically, a cubist graphically represents non-square objects as though they were composed of right angles. Cubism paintings are paintings which are broken up, analyzed and put together in an abstract way - Instead of drawing the picture from one angle, the artist draws the picture from loads of different views to show the object in greater detail.

Answer 2

Cubist art is a type of art whereby the artists tried to show the viewer an object, or scene from many different viewpoints.

They would break the subject up into planes and paint these planes on one surface, in a fragemented way. They wanted to show 3D on a 2D surface. They rejected all ideas of perspective and naturalism.

They aimed to bridge the gap between sculpture and painting.

The cubists had no interest in colour, unlike the Fauves, they were intellectual rather than emotional. They used limited colours, because their point was not to be aesthetically pleasing, but rather to be clever, and

Picasso was a major Cubist artist. He was influenced by Primitive art and non-western art.

Cubism is a style of art created in 1908 by the famous painter Pablo

Picasso. The point of cubism was not to make the paintings realistic

but to show the figure in the picture from different angles. Cubist

paintings are broken up and put together again in an abstract style.

The artist draws the picture from loads of different views to give the

object more detail.

What the said above is correct but i will explain it more. Cubism is a type of abstract art. In cubism, you have a subject and the piece has many angles of that subject in one piece. here is an example. http://www.mdc.edu/wolfson/academic/ArtsLetters/art_philosophy/Humanities/Cubism/11-cubism_Picasso_Woman-Playing-Mandolin.jpg

Answer 3

Cubism was a twentieth century art movement in which objects were broken up, like the breakdown of unified cultural perspective in modernism, analyzed, then reassembled to form an abstract design. Based on the result, what initially could only be viewed from one perspective, can now be viewed from multiple ones as the abstraction lends itself to a myriad of possibilities.

Answer 4

Abstracted forms of the visible world into fragments or facets drawn from multiple points of view then constructed an image from them which had its own internal logic. A severely restricted palette(black, white,& brown) and a painting technique of short distinct 'touches" allowed shards of figure and ground to interpenetrates in a shallow shifting space

Answer 5

Answer 6
