Pablo picasso:
(October 25, 1881 – April 8, 1973) Spanish painter and sculptor, founder of modern art and the main representative of Western modernist painting.
Cubism breaks the focal perspective:
Cubism presents multi-point of view and flatness, realizing the panoramic coexistence of objects and images with multiple viewpoints.
Changing the traditional way of observing and representing things from one point of view, the picture of the three-dimensional space is depicted as a plane.
Cubist polyoptic points of view, which are different viewpoints of the same object;
Such as a person's left side, right side, front and back in the picture of the co-appearance.
The different faces of the same object are combined in the same picture, and the object is expressed in the block features of the geometric figure, so that the object exceeds people's previous visual acceptance experience and visual acceptance habits, and produces abstract visual effects.
Guernica is A masterpiece of great impact and historical significance by Picasso in the 1930s.
Carefully observe that in the long strip of picture space, all the shapes and images are arranged, which are carefully conceived and deliberated, and have a strict and unified order.
In the center of the picture, different bright colored images overlap each other, forming an isosceles triangle;
The central axis of the triangle divides the entire long strip into two squares, and the images at the left and right ends of the picture are balanced against each other.
The so-called pyramidal composition has similar qualities to the composition of Da Vinci's The Last Supper.
In addition, the whole painting can be divided into four segments from left to right:
The first paragraph: highlight the image of the bull;
Second paragraph: emphasis on injured and struggling horses;
The third paragraph: the most conspicuous is the "Statue of Liberty" who holds out the head of the lamp from the window;
Fourth paragraph: The image of the terrified man with his arms outstretched into the sky.
With this carefully organized composition, Picasso presents a dynamic and exciting exaggerated deformation of the image in a unified and orderly manner.
Picasso took the subtraction of painting to the extreme.
Pablo Picasso's Bull is a group of eleven lithographs created in 1945. It depicts cattle in different stages of abstraction.
The first lithograph in the series appears light and natural, as if quickly outlined by brush and ink. Features are fairly accurate, rendering of shadows.
The bull began to turn into a more mysterious beast, with exaggerated horns and a robust appearance. The shadows are also dark and impressive.
Picasso continued to simplify forms, pull straight lines, and flatten planes.
In the end it is nothing more than a simple line drawing depicting a bull.
Learning how to reduce complex subjects to abstract forms is a major aspect of art.
Most people think that art is to see more details, but in fact, the hardest thing in painting is subtraction.
