Picasso And Braque : The Art Of Collage Art

This work can be said to be a post-modern piece as Tiller has utilised several techniques common to this style. Bricolage is the creation of a work from a diverse range of things that happen to be available. In this case, Tiller, out of necessity, created his canvas board system.

The term collage came around in the beginning of the twentieth century by George Braque and Pablo Picasso when it became a distinctive part of the modern art world, it is created by using materials such as paper, card, newspaper and magazine clippings, tissue paper and photographs placed together onto a piece of paper or canvas and stuck down to create a completely new image. Collages have also often been used in different types of art such as cubism and wood work and other types of paintings. It was first introduced around 200 BC when the invention of paper came around in China; however it wasn’t used by many people until around the tenth century when calligraphers experimented by gluing paper, while using the texts onto surfaces when they were writing their poems. The technique was

Art, according to Webster's Dictionary, is a human skill of expression of other objects by painting, drawing, and sculpture. People have used art as a form of expression for a long time. From the Mesopotamian era to the Classical Greeks and the present. Art is expressed in many different ways and styles, and is rapidly changing, one style replacing another. Impressionism and Cubism broke away from the traditional style of painting. They were both looking for a new way to express everyday life. Time is an important tool that is used in Cubism as well as Impressionism. This element is expressed in Claude Monet's Sunrise and Pablo Picasso's Man with a Violin in different ways.

On the other hand, Vincent van Gogh did not do any cubism work during his time as an artist, however, had more of an interest in drawing. Pablo Picasso had an interest in drawing too, but unlike his work, Vincent van Gogh’s drawings are appreciated without the need for bright colours, drawings such as his depiction of figures, light and landscape. Van Gogh drew using a lot of different media, such as chalks, red pen and charcoal, although he often mixed mediums as well when it came to drawing. He drew on not just paper, but a variety of paper types, and materials. However, Van Gogh’s methods of ‘drawing’ are very different to Pablo Picasso’s.

Fine Artists create original artwork using a variety of media combined with their own techniques.

One way of printmaking is lithograph, the concept being “Are made by creating a drawing on a flat prepared surface, usually a large and heavy slab of thick Bavarian limestone… printing a reverse image of what was drawn. The dates in reverse in so many of Picasso's prints is due to this fact” (Saper). An example of this method is “Figure au corsage rayé" made in 1949. Another very famous method used by Picasso himself was linocuts. The ways of creating this was by gouging out a sheet of linoleum which was previously flushed onto a harder block of wood, after applying pressure the inked image is applied to the paper (Saper). Later upgrading to more forms of techniques to produce this single color block to repeating the process but only using a different shade of color every time he made the block again. He created “Bacchanal with Goat” using this very

For example: John Davis has also created the artwork: Koan. It is built from twigs, cotton thread, calico and bituminous paint. Made in 1999, it is 20cm x

Not all collages involve all of those elements, but any one of those can be used by itself. I found “by adding a ‘collage’ an artist can change the nature of what he or she is creating, providing a new dimension for a work of art” (Stern 1).

Art can be made from almost anything, such as scraps to building materials.(for a house or building) Anywhere can become a piece of art. You can make an old car into a beautifully designed piece of art. There are also different styles of scrap art.German artist Kurt Schwitters made a style of art made out of scraps called “rubbish.”At is so beautiful and exquisite because of imagination and the different ideas people come up with.

people. This was almost like a new way of photography, but it was another way to do fine art

So much more can be conveyed in artwork when a finite canvas doesn’t imprison an artist. Pushing the boundaries of artwork from previous time periods allows new artists and graphic designers to experiment with, challenge, and/or destroy the rules of graphic design. This allowed for designs that truly challenge the audience, as well as other designers. Take for example the grunge artwork of David Carson who broke most compositional and legibility rules of graphic design – his style can be summarized by the phrase “expressive deconstruction.” Anything from grunge, to street art, to carving writing into your own body with a knife is considered Contemporary Design. In this world of art no authority can tell you what you’re allowed to do. With the definition of art so stretched, it really gives a lot of freedom to those of the contemporary time period to express a wide range of ideas.

It would allow Picasso to move forward into a kind of paintingthat was totally new (Sayre 455). The painting is considered the predecessor of Cubism, anartistic style initiated by Picasso and his friend and colleague painter, Georges Braque. In Cubistpaintings, objects are broken apart and reassembled in an abstracted form creating college-likeeffects. His creative styles go beyond realism and abstraction, Cubism, and Surrealism. Picassoonce said, “You expect me to tell you: What is

The work is a colorful representation of the past as well as the future showing all aspects of life. There was no detail information on this collage of title work other than the name, but it spoke to me and I had to share this with the class. If you didn’t know anything about art, this work would get your attention and show you the past and take you forward into today. The complimentary colors used in this display has a smooth earthly tone, but as you view the artwork it has a very pleasant, comforting feel as you view the mellow soft colors displayed in this design. This type of work has vivid elements, it really get your

This new visual arts style first came to France right before World War I, and then began to grow across the world in the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. People did not really understand the youth movement in Europe, because all they knew was jazz. But Art Deco found a way to make their design luxurious using simple materials like glass, plastic and ferroconcrete. They were inspired by Aztec Indian art, Egyptian art, Art Nouveau and learned from natural styles in the environment.
