Why was Pablo Picasso famous for cubism art?

Answer 1

Pablo Picasso was inspired by Paul Cezanne's The Great Bathers (1898-1906) of the Post-Impressionist era, which featured geometric structuring and glimpses of bare canvas to remind the audience that they are only looking at a canvas with paint, not a window into a realistic view, or picture plane. Picasso's use of geometry and emphasis on reminding viewers of the 2-D surface in his Analytic Cubist works, such as the one depicted in Portrait of Ambroise Vollard (1910), were based off of Cezanne's art.

Answer 2

Picasso thought: paintings are flat, sculptures are 3-dimensional. Why cannot paintings be made to see things from different directions? In cubist artworks, objects are broken up, analyzed, and re-assembled in an abstracted form-instead of depicting objects from one viewpoint, the artist depicts the subject from a multitude of viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context. Often the surfaces intersect at seemingly random angles, removing a coherent sense of depth. The background and object planes interpenetrate one another to create the shallow ambiguous space, one of cubism's distinct characteristics.

Answer 3

Pablo Picasso wanted to start a new style of art after creating so much according to the old rules and old styles. The world had changed since the world of the European Old Masters, and Picasso's Cubist works reflect this change.
