Cubist Art

Cubism, the first abstract art style, emerged in early 1900s Europe, pioneered by artists like Pablo Picasso. It sought to depict the world using geometric shapes, inspired by Paul Cezanne's idea that nature could be represented by cylinders, cones, and spheres. These shapes, being three-dimensional, were used by Cubists to create fragmented viewpoints, making Cubism a significant and influential art movement of the 20th century.
