Pablo Picasso; 1907 (20th century) oil on canvas ; cubism Cubism was the most influential of the modernist movement. It was the invention of Picasso and Braque and proved a launching pad for both artists allowing them to come in on modern life and investigate how we perceive the world around us. The painting above is considered one of the most powerful and complex paintings of the 20th century. The simplified features and wide almond shaped eyes of the three figures on the left reflect the Iberian influence while the two figures at the right were inspired by African masks. The painting makes its viewers uneasy. The women are shielded by masks flattened and fractured into sharp angular shapes. Also suggest that women are not the gentle passive creatures men would like for them to be. This viewpoint contradiction in during tradition prevalent at least since the renaissance of returning sexual availability in the female nude just as strongly as Picasso's treatment of space shatters their reliance on ordered and linear perspective equally standard since the same period. Most of his friends were horrified by his new work

Slide id: Where do we come from what are we where are we going
Paul gauguin, post Impressionism. 1897 (19th c) Rejected impressionism and called his own style synthetism. His style synthesized observation of the subject in nature with the artist feelings about the subject expressed through the abstract line shape space and colors Gauguin indicated that the painting should be read from right to left, with the three major figure groups illustrating the questions posed in the title. The three women with a child represent the beginning of life; the middle group symbolizes the daily existence of young adulthood; and in the final group, according to the artist, "an old woman approaching death appears reconciled and resigned to her thoughts"; at her feet, "a strange white bird...represents the futility of words." The blue idol in the background apparently represents what Gauguin described as "the Beyond." Of its entirety he said, "I believe that this canvas not only surpasses all my preceding ones, but that I shall never do anything better—or even like it." The painting is an accentuation of Gauguin's trailblazing post-impressionistic style; his art stressed the vivid use of colors and thick brushstrokes, tenets of the impressionists (though the Impressionists focused on quick brushstrokes), while it aimed to convey an emotional or expressionistic strength. It emerged in conjunction with other avant-garde movements of the twentieth century, including cubism and fauvism.
