Cubism

Cubism stands out as one of the most decisive revolutions in the history of modern art. Born in Paris at the beginning of the 20th century under the impetus of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, whose intense collaboration between 1908 and 1914 led to a radical questioning of the conventions of pictorial representation inherited from the Renaissance.

By abandoning the single perspective and the fixed viewpoint to simultaneously represent multiple viewpoints of the same object, Cubism effected a fundamental break with five centuries of Western tradition, paving the way for all the abstractions and formal deconstructions that followed.

Analytical Cubism, in its shades of gray and brown, fragments forms to the point of near invisibility, while Synthetic Cubism reintroduces color and collage, incorporating everyday materials such as newspaper or wood into the pictorial composition.

This foundational legacy has profoundly influenced 20th-century art and continues to shape the work of many contemporary artists, who embrace the fragmentation of forms, the multiplicity of viewpoints, and the tension between representation and abstraction to develop resolutely modern artistic languages.

On Artsper, this selection brings together works that extend this Cubist legacy, demonstrating the enduring vitality of a movement that has permanently transformed our way of seeing and representing the world.
