Cubism

The Cubist movement was originated by Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso. Beginning with Picasso executing ideas laid out by Braque, the 2 began to feed off each others’ inspiration, creating a style of their own. In the beginning, their work was practically indistinguishable from each other. As they progressed, they gradually drifted in different directions, pursuing different subject matter.

Cubism seems to reflect different perspectives, different points in space and time condensed into oneness.

Other prominent artists who represent the Cubist movement include: Juan Gris, Jean Metzinger, Robert Delaunay, Albert Gleizes, Henri Le Fauconnier, and Fernand Léger.

My art never represented a true Cubist style — more like a dumbed-down version closer to realism, as if reality had been converted to video game polygon graphics.
