Lesson 3.5: Abstract Pointillism and Cubism

George Seurat - Pointillism

Paul Signac

Cubism is a revolutionary art movement that emerged in the early 20th century, primarily associated with painters Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. It sought to depict objects from multiple viewpoints simultaneously, breaking them down into geometric shapes and presenting them in a fragmented manner. Cubist artworks often feature facets, planes, and overlapping forms, challenging traditional notions of perspective and representation. This movement had a profound impact on modern art, influencing not only painting but also sculpture, literature, and architecture.
