George Braque

Designer	George Braque
Dates	1882-1963

Description

Braque's paintings showed the Cubist way of representing the world as seen from a number of different angles. He conveyed a feeling of being able to move around within the painting as well as being part of it.

Cubists rebelled against traditional for the last centuries 2 dimensional point of approaching and viewing art.

Personal View

Braque's works show an amazing way of looking into art and conveying it to the viewers.his 3 dimentional works amaze with their volume, expansion and dynamics. He is certainly one of the greatest modern artists.

Context

Other similar works can be seen in Pablo Picasso's style, which just as braque is as dynamic and 3 dimensional, although Picasso's art is recognized as the most bold and arrogant of all cubist works.
