Les Demoiselles D Avignon & Matisse's Joy Of Life

Picasso's innovations expanded our minds and actually went to the art. His work has influenced many art and research not only in the art world, but also influenced the sculpture, architecture and music. The CUBIST movement revolutionized many of the world's features. This has provoked a new thinking process, which leads to a new style and deep in the sense. It changed the way to see the world. Picasso's Cubism is trusted as the greatest break in the art history since the Renaissance revolution. The Picasso artist's "rules" gave to the people. His analytical cubism transformed the paintings from a single perspective to many perspectives and broke geometric shapes. His later cubism, Synthetic Cubism it’s developed by use of daily

The painting shows man and nature in harmony. A clear sign that he focused mostly on drawing is the geometric forms used in the painting. He used very calm tonality to give it the calmness. His artwork and brushwork are very fluid and focused. This painting has no historical meaning because this painting was after his transition from historical to landscape. Instead of telling a story it is supposed to evoke a calm mood. The golden light contributes to its peacefulness. Now that I have explained both paintings individually, in the following paragraph I will talk about their differences and what makes them different.

Pablo Picasso was one of the brightest artist for his time and he has been credited with influencing many of the different directions that art went in the twentieth century. Picasso was said to influence styles of art like surrealism and co-invent cubism and not unlike artists before him, he drew inspiration from the great people of the time such as Freud or artists like Cézanne. Picasso was unique in the fact that his paintings represented what he wanted them to represent and through the freedom of interpretation, Picasso was able to influence those who saw his works. Picasso was such a different painter in his time because instead of focusing on the details and trying to make things perfectly realistic, he painted with a sort of freedom

As Pablo Picasso once said, “Painting is a blind man’s profession. He paints not what he sees, but what he feels, what he tells himself about what he has seen.” Picasso’s passion for art started at a young age, getting his passion for art from his father. Pablo Picasso is known for the innovative techniques he introduced to the art world. Each being influenced from his life around him, to modifications in the colors he utilized, or transitioning to an unorthodox style of painting, and even practicing printmaking.

Picasso painted for himself, as a release from the pressures of his society and as a way to express his thoughts and problems in tangible form. For this reason, the events happening around the time of any Picasso work must be understood before the true meaning of any resulting art can be understood.

Here Colesscott has developed Picasso’s abstraction and ‘Africanism’ in line with European influences. Colescott has made this famous image his own, in terms of color and content, whilst still making his inspiration clear. Picasso’s borrowing of the original art piece allowed him to remodel the painting into one that contains a different interpretation of society, context, colors and formal expressions. Picasso saw the strength and valuable assets in the original painting and stole them into his own like an artist, making use of the best features and enhancing them through his own

Despite the fact that these two paintings share analogous attributes, they also differ in many ways. According to the museum information card on Derain’s piece, the work is “expressive of

This painting is much more sensual than Giorgione’s painting due to Titian’s because he engages the woman with the audience by making her look straightforwardly at the audience and his use of chiaroscuro (Grabski, Józef).

Pablo Picasso’s way of drawing can be seen as very different and rather similar at the same time compared to Vincent Van Gogh’s method. Drawing allowed van Gogh to capture light and images more quickly than with painting and

Setting is an important depiction in this painting because of the position of the face. Additionally, the face rests in the middle of the painting, and the discussion of the redness around the eyes and the mouth gaping open has already been addressed restating that the face is directly in the center of the painting. This can be interpreted as a visual symbol that perhaps the face is stuck in the middle of a decision and does not know which path to take. Once again, integrating the idea of the old classical music and the unwelcoming presence of the new contemporary music. This face is clearly stuck in the middle of the decision and is longing in pain to understand why this change

Paul Cézanne is considered to be an influential figure from an era of Post-Impressionism that later spawned Fauvism and Cubism including their complexities. During the era of Post-Impressionism, Paul Cézanne “insisted that painting stay in touch with its material, if not virtually sculptural origins” (TheArtStory-PC, n.d.). In congruence with Paul Cézanne's (1905) The Large Bathers, Henri Matisse's (1905) Joy of Life (Bonheur de Vivre), and Pablo Picasso's (1907) Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, an observer may consider the balance of color and line conformity that separates style from each composition while simultaneously indicating the origin of influence.

Pablo Picasso is easily considered one of the best and most influential artists of the 20th Century and perhaps of all time, with his unique style and being one of the innovators of cubism and surrealism. When it come the personal life of Picasso, it was anything but stable. Reflecting in this work, Picasso was cursed with an almost unmanageable sex drive that caused him to have multiple wives and mistresses, keeping Picasso on a constant search for new women as he lost interest with his former lovers. Having such womanizing qualities within his personality and the constant struggle to find a balance between his sexual desires has had a great effect on his art. A large number of his works have a sexual component to them, whether is nudity, sexual activities, complete exposure of breast and vaginal areas, and men genitalia. Furthermore, it becomes apparent that Picasso dehumanized women in his art, turning them into sexual objects rather than human beings. The multiple “periods” (blue, rose, cubist, classical, and surrealist) dividing his artistic life are often a direct result of his sexual life. To get a true understanding of Picasso’s pieces are to understand the underlining sexual motive deeper within. To know Picasso and his state of mind while completing each one of his works, we must compare the sexual imagery to his personal life and see how they correlate to each other.

The figures on the right have very odd looking faces, which Picasso was pulling from African art. (Harris & Zucker, n.d.) So Picasso was incorporating even more influences into a reaction of other paintings. Matisse and Picasso were both pushing each other into new territory in the art world.(Harris & Zucker, n.d. 2) By trying to upstage each other the art became more and more different than the accepted art at the

Although examining art requires a huge knowledge, my intention in this essay is to analyze a piece of art, besides lyrics and the context, I’m going to examine it by following the steps presented by Alain de Botton.

I personally get a sense of perfection in a human world when I look at this painting, which is a bit misleading but appropriate for a time in which men were beginning to question the divine and finding answers in the natural world where science and mathematical solutions were starting to make sense of everything around us.
