Welcome to this art history video about the history of Cubism, one of the most significant art movements of the 20th century. In this video, we will discuss the origins of Cubism, its' key figures like Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, and Cubism's different phases, including Analytical Cubism.

Cubism emerged in the early 1900s as a response to the traditional forms of painting that dominated the art world. It was a movement that sought to break away from the rules of perspective and representation that had been established in the Renaissance. Instead, Cubists artists aimed to represent the world from multiple viewpoints simultaneously, emphasizing geometric shapes and abstract forms.

Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque are considered the founders of cubism. They began to experiment with the style in the early 1900s, leading to the creation of some of the most iconic works of the movement. Picasso's "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon" (1907) and Braque's "Houses at L'Estaque" (1908) (or "Large Nude", 1908) are often cited as the first examples of Cubism. Influenced by Paul Cezanne's work and African tribal masks, Picasso and Braque proceeded with creating a unique art style.

The Cubist movement went through different phases, including Analytical Cubism, which was characterized by the deconstruction of forms into basic geometric shapes and the use of monochromatic colors. This phase is considered the most radical and intellectually demanding of the movement. Analytical cubist paintings often featured fragmented objects, and the artists focused on depicting the underlying structure and composition of their subjects.

Cubism was an influential art movement that rejected traditional forms of representation and sought to represent the world in a new way. Its' founders, Picasso and Braque, revolutionized the art world by introducing new techniques and approaches to painting. Analytical Cubism is a key phase of the movement, and it is characterized by the use of geometric shapes and monochromatic colors to depict the underlying structure of the subjects.
