"Cubism is not a reality you can take in your hand. It's more like a perfume, in front of you, behind you, to the sides, the scent is everywhere but you don't quite know where it comes from."  -Pablo Picasso

"Cubism" was a highly influential visual arts style of the 20th century that was created principally by the painters Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque in Paris between 1907 and 1914. The Cubist style emphasized the flat, two-dimensional surface of the picture plane, rejecting the traditional techniques of perspective, foreshortening, modeling, and chiaroscuro and refuting time-honored theories of art as the imitation of nature. Cubist painters were not bound to copying form, texture, color, and space; instead, they presented a new reality in paintings that depicted radically fragmented objects, whose several sides were seen simultaneously.

Artists, Photographers, and Sculptures are asked to explore Abstract Art Styles and/or the Cubist Art style and create original work/s incorporating as many key ideas of the movement as possible.

Join us August 7th, 11am - 2pm and take an opportunity to talk with the Exhibition Artists at our Opening Reception.
