"Georges Braque developed his painting skills while working for his father, a house decorator. He moved to Paris in 1900 to study where he was drawn to the work of the Fauve artists, including Matisse, Derain and Dufy, as well as the late landscapes of Cézanne. Meeting Picasso marked a huge turning point in Braque's development and together they evolved as leaders of Cubism. After a brief interlude in which he was called up to fight in the First World War, Braque's style developed in the direction he was to follow for the rest of his life. In establishing the principle that a work of art should be autonomous and not merely imitate nature, Cubism redefined art in the twentieth century. Braque's large compositions incorporated the Cubist aim of representing the world as seen from a number of different viewpoints. He wanted to convey a feeling of being able to move around within the painting. The still life subject remained his chief preoccupation from 1927 to 1955." - From "The A-Z of Art: The World's Greatest and Most Popular Artists and Their Works", by Nicola Hodge and Libby Anson Georges Braque Images Buy Georges Braque posters online Click here! 1907 Terrace of Hotel Mistral 1908 Houses at L'Estaque 1908 Large Nude 1908 Musical Instruments 1908 Viaduct at L'Estaque 1908-09 Fruitdish 1909 Castle at La Roche-Guyon 1909 Fishing Boats 1909 Harbor in Normandy 1910 Bottle and Fishes 1910 Violin and Candlestick 1910 Violin and Pitcher 1911 Man with a Guitar 1911-12 Le Portugais (The Emigrant) 1912 Fruit Dish, "Quotidien du Midi" 1912 The Fruitdish 1912 Fruitdish and Glass 1912 Man with a Violin 1912 Still Life BACH 1912 Still Life with a Violin 1912 Still Life with Harp and Violin 1913 Bottle, Newspaper, Pipe, and Glass 1913 Fruit Dish, Ace of Clubs 1913 Pedestal Table 1913 Tenora 1913 Violin and Pipe: "Le Quotidien" 1913 Woman with a Guitar 1914 Glass, Carafe and Newspapers 1914 Still Life on a Table: "Gillette." 1925 Fruit on a Tablecloth with a Fruitdish 1942 Black Fish 1942 Interior with Palette [Art Posters] [Home] [Juxtapositions] [Galleries] [Theory and Criticism] [Art CD-ROM Reviews] [Artchive] [Links]
