217Cubism  

Scope note

  • Generally acknowledged to have been the most significant movement in 20th-century art, Cubism was created in the period 1907-1914. It abandoned the traditional fixed viewpoint which had dominated western painting since the Renaissance, and instead explored a multiplicity of viewpoints to develop an accumulated idea of the subject. Among the movements which took Cubism as a starting point or an essential component were Constructivism and Futurism.
