Cubism and 20th Century Art"Rather than restricting himself largely to a consideration of Cubism's formative period, 1907 to 1914, Rosenblum expands the focus to include not only a thorough study of the foundations of Cubism in the work of Picasso, Braque, Gris, Leger, and their Parisian followers, but also an analysis of the major pictorial and sculptural styles of our time, both in Europe and America. In addition, then, to examining the work of such relatively faithful adherents to the Cubist viewpoint as Villon, Feininger, and Stuart Davis, he indicates how Cubism provided the means to achieve the diverse artistic goals to such movements as Futurism and such masters as Duchamp, Marc, Mondrian, Miro, and Chagall."--BOOK COVER. |
