What do you
think were the
main themes
behind
cubism? Why?

CUBISM

CUBISM
Cubism was an art
movement in France
that lasted from 1908
to 1918 and beyond.
It was started by
Pablo Picasso and
Georges Braque.
CUBISM
At the beginning of the
20th century, Braque
and Picasso were not
interested in showing
traditional realism—
illusionism—by using
realistic perspective as
had been done in the
past.
Meditation, 1885
William Bouguereau
CUBISM
Braque and Picasso were influenced by
Paul Cezanne,
who
simplified
natural forms
into spheres,
cylinders,
cubes, and
cones . . .
Rocky Landscape, 1887
Paul Cezanne
CUBISM
They were also influenced
by the recent importation
to Europe of African
masks.
Nuna Buffalo Mask
CUBISM
Cubists wanted to
show objects as
geometric shapes
(like Cezanne),
Little Harbor, 1909
Georges Braque
CUBISM
from different angles
at the same time (like
scientific ideas about
time and space at the
beginning of the 20th
century) . . .
Woman with a Guitar, 1913
Pablo Picasso
CUBISM
and scenes as flat (like
photography).
Woman Seated, 1908
Pablo Picasso
CUBISM
Can you see the
influence of African
masks in Picasso’s
Les Demoiselles
d’Avignon?
CUBISM
Cubism developed
and changed over
time: the first phase
was Analytic Cubism.
It is sometimes called
‘Facet Cubism’
because the subject
and surrounding
space is broken into
facets, or pieces of
separate surfaces (like
a cut diamond).
CUBISM
Ambroise Vollard,
painted in 1910 by
Pablo Picasso, is an
example of Analytic
Cubism.
Do you see the
facets?
CUBISM
This is Portrait of
Picasso by Juan Gris.
Portrait of Picasso, 1912
Juan Gris (Spain)
CUBISM
Still Life with Glass, Dice, Newspaper and
Playing Card, 1913
Georges Braque
While Analytic Cubism
took forms apart, the
next phase of
Cubism—Synthetic
Cubism—put forms
together using collage
and assemblage,
which created
questions about
what’s illusion and
what’s real.
CUBISM
Still Life with a Poem, 1915
Juan Gris
Picasso, Braque, and
others continued to
explore the ideas of
Cubism. Synthetic
Cubism included the
addition of stenciling
and lettering, and used
vibrant colors, instead
of the dark, limited
color palette of
Analytic Cubism.

What was the Goal of Les Fauves?
•
•
•
•
overall goal was to express emotion through
the color of paint
No artistic creed or rules
Though it is difficult to say the aims of the
Fauve group, this person gave it their all
"To render the equivalent of sunlight by means of a technique
based on color orchestration, by emotional transpositions
(with the emotions inspired by nature as our point of
departure) whose truths and theories were built up in the
course of enthusiastic research work."
What kind of style did Les Fauves
Have?
•
Les Fauves styles encompassed a wide
range, that is much easier shown than
explained.

The main Proponents of Fauvism!
Henri Matisse
"Lost in these chaotic surroundings,
discouraged from the moment of my arrival...
from monday to friday, and so meaningless
that their perfection made me dizzy."
- Henri Matisse
HENRI MATISSE


1869 – 1954
“What I dream of is an art of balance, of
purity, and serenity devoid of troubling or
depressing subject matter.”
“The artist only sees old truths in a new light,
because there are no new truths.”
“Construction by colored surfaces. Search for
intensity of color, subject matter being
unimportant. Reaction against the diffusion of
local tone in light. Light...expressed by a
harmony of intensely colored surfaces.”
“We move towards serenity through the
simplification of ideas and form… Details
lessen the purity of the lines, they harm the
emotional intensity, and we choose to reject
them. It is a question of learning – and
perhaps relearning the ‘handwriting’ of lines.
The aim of painting is not to reflect history,
because this can be found in books. We have a
higher conception. Through it, the artist
expresses his inner vision.”

Maurice de Vlaminck
• “I wanted to express my
feelings without
troubling what painting
was like before
me...When I've got the
color tubes in my hand,
I don’t give a damn
about other people’s
pictures. Life and me,
me and life-that’s all
that matters.”
MAURICE DE VLAMINCK
1876 – 1958
 “I wanted to burn down the Ecole
des Beaux-Arts with my cobalts
and vermillions and I wanted to
express my feelings with my
brushes without troubling what
painting was like before me”

Key Influences on Fauvism
•
Specifically other artists
Gustave Moreau
•
•
•
Teacher at the Ecole Des Beaux Arts.
Liberal teacher who allowed/ encouraged his
students to branch out and experiment
“You must think colour, have imagination with it. If
you have no imagination, you'll never paint beautiful
color. You must copy nature with imagination - that
is what makes an artist. Colour must be thought,
dreamt, imagined.”
-Gustave Moreau
Van Gogh
•
•
Influenced the Fauve movement with his
technique and unique style.
The artist he influenced the most was
Maurice De Vlaminck.
Gauguin
•
•
•
He was the first to use flat color as an
emotive form on his paintings.
First really became noticed on his painting,
Jacob Wrestling with the Angel. (next slide)
“how do you see these trees?’ ‘they are yellow’. well
then put down yellow. And that shadow is rather blue.
So render it with pure ultramarine...”
Braque
•
•
•
Earlier works were Impressionistic
Became interested in the Fauvist style of
painting when he saw an exhibition featuring
Fauvist works
He created more subdued Fauvist-style
paintings, drawn to use of color and loose
line to convey emotion
Landscape at L'Estaque 1906
Cezanne
•
•
He used different angles to mess with form
and space. He tried to put different
perspectives into one art piece.
Influenced Vlaminck
Down Fall/ Expressionism
•
•
•
•
By 1908 the Fauves begin to drift apart and
go their separate ways
Derain and Braque shifted towards Cubism
Matisse transitioned from a Fauvist focus on
color to that of balance and simplicity
Fauvism was a transitionary movement
between Impressionism and Expressionism

The Dadaism &
Surrealism Movement

Dadaism
Dadaism was the product of the
disillusionment, defeatism, and insane
butchery of World War 1.
A movement in art and literature based on
deliberate irrationality and negation of
traditional artistic values
DADAISM
Surrealism
is a cultural movement that developed
in Europe in the aftermath of World
War I in which artists depicted
unnerving, illogical scenes and
developed techniques to allow the
unconscious mind to express itself.
