Fine Art
Georges Braque (1882–1963) was a French painter, collagist, and sculptor best known as a co-founder of Cubism alongside Pablo Picasso. His innovative approach to form, perspective, and color transformed modern art, influencing generations of artists.
Key Contributions & Style:
Cubism (1907–1914):
Worked closely with Picasso to develop Analytical Cubism, breaking down objects into geometric shapes.
Later transitioned to Synthetic Cubism, incorporating collage and texture into his paintings.
Still Life & Fauvism (Pre-1907):
Early works were influenced by Fauvism, using bold colors and dynamic brushstrokes.
Post-Cubist Work:
Developed a more personal, refined Cubist style, focusing on still lifes and interiors with muted colors and complex spatial arrangements.
Braque’s influence on modern art is immeasurable, pioneering a movement that reshaped artistic perception. While Picasso became the more famous figure, Braque remained dedicated to Cubism throughout his life, refining and personalizing its language.
