Cezanne

PAUL CÉZANNE            Post Impressionism, as the name would suggest, is the art movement that directly followed Impressionism. One artist, who led the Post Impressionism movement, was French artist, Paul Cézanne. Much of his early work was pure Impressionism and, although he was introduced to the style and guided by Camille Pissarro, Cézanne's works showed a distinctive uniqueness. Cézanne broke away from Impressionism because of the lack of composition;

An artist can draw inspiration from any source, including other artist. Paul Cezanne is an artist that inspired other artist by his emotions of the world. Susan Stamberg (2009) reports for NPR that Pablo Picasso considered Cezanne “the father of us all”. Stamberg goes on to explain how Cezanne infused his work with layers of shape and color. Before Cezanne’s work The Large Bathers, he created other works with the same impressionist type figures. Cezanne’s work Bathers and Fisherman with a Line

In this essay, I intend to explore how the French Post-Impressionist painter Paul Cezanne (1839-1906) has had an influence upon the development of Cubism, an avant-garde approach brought about in the early 20th century. Although some artists such as Kosuth would argue other painters like Duchamp gave art its self-identification, I will argue that Cezanne’s heavy influence on Cubism has played an important role with art having its own identity along with the significant impact he made on Cubists such

idea that the world is represented by experiences, rather than as one may have thought it to previously be. In this work of art, Cezanne uses a few contrasting colors and creates several implied lines that draw the eye to notice the volumes in which the space is filled. He uses color in the way in which it constructs a three dimensional view, while constructing form. Cezanne had a unique process of painting that did not reflect nature.

As for what I learned during this unit, Cézanne was a father of cubism when cubism was unknown! Therefore, as he uses geometric shapes, we can find a same draw style in Matisse’s paint and Picasso too. Of course, Picasso had influenced from that style, but he used to exaggerate more these geometric shapes! In fact, between paints of Joy of Life and The Large Bathers, for example we find similarities as both of them used a landscape in their paints, then “in both works trees are planted at the sides

Cezanne applied his paint in thick layers with broad, discrete, and methodical brushstrokes, remaining true to the architectural ideal that every portion of the canvas must contribute to the structural integrity of the painting. With each brushstroke, Cezanne was constructing a picture as apposed to painting it (Paul Cézanne Biography). In contrast, Monet used a single color, applying it, using a bold, flat and

Japanese artwork was Paul Cézanne. In Cézanne’s case, his relationship with Japanese art forms was vague in comparison to the other Impressionists. He was not an avid collector of Japanese prints such as Degas, nor was he privy to the fascination with these unique objects. Cézanne was an artist “who admired Puget and Michelangelo for their sculptural volume: he was temperamentally incapable of adopting Japanese prints as his ideal,” (Berger 112). Studies have shown that Cézanne paid closer attention

Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon are considered as great artworks of modern art. The both are inspired by postimpressionism and also broken the old style that is depicted by Cezanne. In this essay, I would like to argue how the two are inspired by Cezanne art piece and how eminence they are. Paul Cezanne's The Large Bathers Cézanne got rid of the traditional presentation of paintings that is point on the space and colors. And he deliberately followed firm format than changing colors. He also reduces

Pablo Picasso were both profoundly influenced by the art of Paul Cézanne, somewhat ironically since the latter is reported to have been quite uncertain of his artistic contributions and anxious about his legacies (Merleau-Ponty, 1945). Picasso described Cézanne as “my one and only master” ; while Matisse noted that “it is undoubtedly to Cézanne that I owe the most” . The Large Bathers was one of two final paintings produced by Cézanne in 1906, the year of his death. At this stage Matisse had acquired
