In 1908, Paris autumn saloon exhibition, when Fauvism Matisse saw the works of Picasso and those of Braque style is novel and unique, could not help but exclaim: "this is just some cube!" in an art magazine by Matisse this view comment on the works of Braque said: "Braque will be reduced at all cube". After the Convention, "Cubism" later became a denotational style and school record of Picasso and Braque. Cubist artists "by Cezanne with the cylinder, sphere and cone to deal with nature" thought inspiration, trying to create the beauty of structure in the picture. They worked hard to cut works descriptive and expressive composition, to the picture structure to organize a geometrical tendency. They pursue fragmentation, analytical, in the form of re combination, forming a separation screen -- artists in many angles to describe the object, will be placed in the same picture, to the most complete image for the expression of object. For example, in Picasso's "Yawei farm girl" one picture, positive face is painted with the side of the nose, and the side face down draw positive eyes. In addition to Cezanne's theory, cubism also learn inspiration from Africa wood carving, wood carving is a "Africa primitive art, exaggeration, concise, exactly the geometry theory of Cezanne". Cezanne is not only a "Cubism" father, is "the father of western modern art". Talking about the modern western art movement at the beginning of the "Post Impressionism" on behalf of Cezanne's painting theory, China Central Academy of Fine Arts professor Wang Huaxiang said, "the avant-garde artists of the ruling for 500 years in the classical realistic painting of traditional aesthetic fatigue, painting began to subjective and personal creative things. Cezanne perspective, geometry extraction method from classical painting, proposes that use the cylinder, sphere and cone to deal with nature ', he basically is the imitation of the nature, but his successor from his theory, will everything through the geometry transformation, entirely on the anti imitation, reverse on the narrative." canvas art mythological paintings religious paintings Impressionism Romanticism Located in London, Whitechapel recently announced the appointment of
