Impressionism to Cubism Camille Pissarro- Impressionist Paul Cezanne- Post Impressionist Impressionism to Cubism Camille Pissarro- impressionist Paul Cezanne- Post Impressionist • Cezanne, Paul (1839 – 1906) – While studying under Pissarro, Cezanne painted in the Impressionist style – Cezanne diverged from impressionism and developed his own style and become the “master at Aix.” – He developed planar analysis and the effort to show objects in the round that the cubist took to an extreme. Paul Cezanne- Post Impressionist The Cubists • Cubism was probably the most important and influential art movement since the Italian Renaissance; it revolutionized European painting and sculpture in the early 20th century. – In cubist artworks, objects are broken up, analyzed, and re-assembled in an abstracted form • instead of rendering objects from a single fixed angle, the artist depicts the subject from multiple angles simultaneously as an attempt to present the subject in the most complete manner. • The background and object (or figure) planes interpenetrate one another creating the ambiguous shallow space characteristic of cubism. Guernica Social Issue Georges Braque (1882-1963) – Braque studied under the Fauves and the work of Cezanne. – His father was a house painter and he took up the trade as a profession before studying art. – Braque used some house painting techniques in his artwork. – In his cubist paintings he wanted to create the feeling that a person could move around in the image. Georges Braque Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) • Studied under his father and mastered the academic techniques by age 16 • Picasso’s art work went through many changes in style, most notably, his blue and rose periods when his palette was dominated by those colors. • Picasso is credited with creating the technique of “collage,” which comes from the French word “colle” which means “to glue.” Pablo Picasso Violon, verre, pipe et encrier by Pablo Picasso (1912) .

Information for Teachers Background Information Exhibition Walkthrough Technique & Vocabulary Nudity in Art and Your Students Planning Your Visit Classroom Activities Pre-Visit Activity: Playing on Paper Pre-Visit Activity: Parlez-vous Français? Pre-Visit Activity: A Field Trip to Impressionist Europe Post-Visit Activity: Making Marks Part II (see Gallery Activities for Part I) Post-Visit Activity: Répondez S'il Vous Plaît Gallery Activities Making Marks Part I (Eye Spy) Background Information Featuring over 120 works on paper pastels, watercolors, and drawings by some of the most famous artists in the history of Western European art, Impressionism: Masterworks on Paper is an exhibition with a game-changing thesis. Older students can dive into what is fresh in art history as a result of this new scholarship, while younger students can engage with works by Monet, Degas, Van Gogh, Cézanne, and others. Notably, these works on paper are rarely seen because they are extremely delicate and sensitive to light. Works on paper are generally shown for only three months at a time, after which they must go back into storage for at least three years. You probably already know the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists represented in this exhibition but did you know that these artists created art other than painting? Many of their most experimental and groundbreaking techniques and ideas were fleshed out on paper rather than on canvas.

  • CUBISM and ABSTRACTION Background
    015_Cubism_Abstraction.doc READINGS: CUBISM AND ABSTRACTION Background: Apollinaire, On Painting Apollinaire, Various Poems Background: Magdalena Dabrowski, "Kandinsky: Compositions" Kandinsky, Concerning the Spiritual in Art Background: Serial Music Background: Eugen Weber, CUBISM, Movements, Currents, Trends, p. 254. As part of the great campaign to break through to reality and express essentials, Paul Cezanne had developed a technique of painting in almost geometrical terms and concluded that the painter "must see in nature the cylinder, the sphere, the cone:" At the same time, the influence of African sculpture on a group of young painters and poets living in Montmartre - Picasso, Braque, Max Jacob, Apollinaire, Derain, and Andre Salmon - suggested the possibilities of simplification or schematization as a means of pointing out essential features at the expense of insignificant ones. Both Cezanne and the Africans indicated the possibility of abstracting certain qualities of the subject, using lines and planes for the purpose of emphasis. But if a subject could be analyzed into a series of significant features, it became possible (and this was the great discovery of Cubist painters) to leave the laws of perspective behind and rearrange these features in order to gain a fuller, more thorough, view of the subject. The painter could view the subject from all sides and attempt to present its various aspects all at the same time, just as they existed-simultaneously. We have here an attempt to capture yet another aspect of reality by fusing time and space in their representation as they are fused in life, but since the medium is still flat the Cubists introduced what they called a new dimension-movement.

Most art historians peg modernism to Europe in the mid- to late- nineteenth century, with particularly important developments in France, so we’ll look at that time in Paris and then see how modernist influences affect artworks here in the American South.

It is characterized by a subjective approach to painting, as artists opted to evoke emotion rather than realism in their work • Symbolism, a loosely organized literary and artistic movement that originated with a group of French poets in the late 19th century, spread to painting and the theatre, and influenced the European and American literatures of the 20th century to varying degrees. • Fauvism is the style of les Fauves (French for "the wild beasts"), a group of early twentieth- century modern artists whose works emphasized painterly qualities and strong color over the representational or realistic values retained by Impressionism. • Expressionism is a modernist movement, initially in poetry and painting, originating in Germany at the beginning of the 20th century. ... Expressionist artists have sought to express the meaning of emotional experience rather than physical reality. • Cubism is an early-20th-century avant-garde art movement that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture.

  • The French Art World in the 19Th and 20Th Centuries : Summer
    The French Art World in the 19th and 20th centuries : Summer Session Professor: Laure-Caroline Semmer Period: Monday-Wednesday-Thursday 14h-16h30 (unless otherwise indicated) Email: / 06 11 16 87 58 Course Abstract This course traces the artistic contribution to modernity in 19th -century and the first decades of 20th century French art, its utopian dimension, its different achievements and its decline. Since the French Revolution, major works of art, art critics and theorists, and artists themselves contributed to change drastically the artist’s role and the role of the arts. Against the backdrop of the newly established bourgeois, industrialized and modernized society in France, the co-existence of opposite art practices and ideologies as well as the quickly following changes and innovations in successive art-movements, such as realism, impressionism, postimpressionism, cubism, fauvism will be analysed with regard to their respective claim for modernity. Through an examination of form and content distinguishable in works of various artistic disciplines (painting, sculpture, architecture, design), students will critically evaluate artistic language and expression that is representative of modern ideologies. This course will examine the visual arts and will utilize theoretical texts for supportive analysis. Course Objectives: Upon completionSAMPLE of the course the student will be able to: - Distinguish major art movements from Neo-Classicism to Modern Art. - Analyze and contextualize key works of 19th and 20th century French Art. - Demonstrate awareness and understanding of their historical, social and esthetical background. - Have a basic reading of essential art critics and art theories dealing with modernity. - Acquire basic knowledge about the foundations of Modern Art.
