What is fourth dimension cubism?

Cubism has absolutely nothing to do with the fourth dimension. The fourth dimension, as applicable to Einstein's relativity, is the function of a four dimensional space/time manifold; an actual non-tangible formation, of which Cubism is not a representation. The reason some people begin to believe that Cubism has something to do with the fourth dimension, is simply because most people involved with the art world know little, if any at all, about the function of physics, and also the the people who understand physics know little about the art world. The art world simply takes advantage of the misunderstandings to use the concept as a marketing ploy. So, we can know that what is really happening, when people cite the fourth dimension in an attempt to rationalize Cubism, is simply the function of The Emperor's New Clothes, and also people proving that they do not understand either function.


Why do artists do cubism?

Cubism is a style of art created in the 1920's * by two famous painters Pablo Picasso and George Braque. They both used a lot of cubism in their paintings. Cubism is a type of art that shows movement through **time. That means that instead of painting someone stiff, the artist would paint them to were they looked like they were moving. Another thing you do in cubism is you break down the object (person or thing) into geometric shapes. That way instead of showing one face, the artist could use small shapes to show more than one. *) No, it was in 1908. **) That 'moving in time' idea was more the concept of Futurism. In Paris there was a very intensive debate circa 1910-1914 in which the Futurist artists accused the Cubists that they were re-establishing the classical way of art, an art without movement! Look the quotes by Boccioni for instance; follow link. I think Cubism was mainly concentrated on observing the object from different directions - so only movement in space - and not in time. Their nude didn't move - or the bottle, or the guitar - in Cubism. When the cubist artists were getting ready to do cubism, the first thing they did was they drew a sketch and drew the shapes on another piece of paper. Then, they would do the changes on the final sheet of paper. The last thing you do in cubism would be the shapes, shade in the picture, and then the picture would be complete. Cubism is modern art made up mostly of paintings. The paintings are not supposed to look real. The artist uses geometric shapes to show what he is trying to paint. Early cubists used mainly grays, browns, greens, and yellows. After 1914, Cubists started to use brighter colors. Cubism was the beginning of the Abstract and Non-objective art styles. Important Cubist artists were, Picasso and Georges Braque, Juan Gris and Fernand Leger. Metzinger and Feininger made a real school out of the start of Cubism. For more info click links below!
